These matches form part of the ICC ODI Super League and the teams will have the opportunity to secure points to be one of the top seven teams, excluding hosts India, to gain automatic qualification for the 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup.

High Performance manager of KNCB, Roland Lefebvre said: “The KNCB is very excited to welcome the Pakistan cricket team back to the Netherlands. The last time the team visited our country was in 2004 for the Videocon Cup at VRA, a triangular series with Australia and India. The three match Super League series will be a fantastic opportunity for all the Pakistani cricket fans, living in Europe, to watch these games.

“Our men’s national cricket team had an excellent 2021-22 season and I am confident they will build on the momentum to entertain expat Pakistanis and the Dutch spectators with good cricket. This series will also help KNCB attract new and young audiences towards the game.”
