Ind Vs Ned

IND vs NED Update: Riding on an undefeated streak, the Indian cricket team will take on the Netherlands in their next match of the ICC T20 World Cup 2026 on February 18th. The Indian team will be looking to secure a fourth consecutive victory over the Netherlands. They have won all four matches in the tournament so far.

India has once again staked a strong claim to the ICC World Cup title by defeating the USA in the first match, Namibia in the second, and Pakistan in the third. The defending champions of the T20 World Cup will strive to retain the title at all costs. All eyes are now on the match to be played on February 18th. The question remains as to what the Indian team’s playing eleven will be.

Kuldeep Yadav may be rested.

The Indian team may see some major changes for the match to be played in Ahmedabad. Kuldeep Yadav was included in the squad against Pakistan. This is because the Colombo pitch demands a slow bowler. Arshdeep Singh was dropped in his place. Now, Arshdeep Singh appears to be making a comeback in Ahmedabad, where the pitch is good for batting.

Jasprit Bumrah

Another possibility appears to be emerging regarding pace bowler Jasprit Bumrah in the Indian team. Although Bumrah is a local boy in Ahmedabad, he could be rested,d and Siraj could be brought in. Bringing Siraj in to keep Bumrah fit and fresh for the Super Eights is not a bad option.

Varun Chakravarthy

Varun Chakravarthy could be left out against the Netherlands. There is a possibility that Washington Sundar could be given a chance in his place. There could be no better opportunity to test Sundar’s fitness. Sundar bowls off-spin and bats well.

Team India has reached the SuperEighthss

The Indian cricket team has entered the Super Eights by winning all three matches in the group stage so far. They will now aim to defeat the Netherlands and win all their group stage matches. The Indian team has won against the USA, Namibia, and Pakistan.

Abhishek Sharma is failing

Indian cricket team opener Abhishek Sharma’s bat has been silent so far in this tournament. He returned to the pavilion without opening his account against the United States. He was unable to play in the second match against Namibia due to illness. He also failed to open his account in the third match against Pakistan, leaving his fans deeply disappointed.

Probable Playing XI for the Indian Cricket Team

Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan (wicketkeeper), Tilak Verma, Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Hardik Pandya, Shivam Dubey, Rinku Singh, Axar Patel, Arshdeep Singh, Jasprit Bumrah, Varun Chakravarthy.
