The 29th match of World Cup T20 2022 is scheduled to play between Pakistan and Netherlands on Sunday, 30th October 2022 at Perth Stadium, Perth.

Pakistan did well in the first half of the previous match against Zimbabwe. They lost the toss and were asked to field first. The way how the bowling unit of Pakistan performed in the previous match was just outstanding. They leaked 130 runs in 20 overs. Shaheen Afridi, Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf, Mohammad Wasim Jr, and Shadab Khan are leading bowlers in the side of Pakistan and these all bowlers performed well. Mohammad Wasim Jr was the most successful and highest wicket-taker from their side with four wickets to his name in four overs against 24 runs. Shadab Khan was the other bowler who was just superb with the ball. He picked up two wickets in four overs while he was charged with 23 runs. Shadab Khan picked one wicket while Naseem Shah and Shaheen Afridi were the bowlers who failed to pick any wicket.

The big issue of Pakistan had been their batting order. The batters of Pakistan had destroyed all the hard work made by the bowlers. Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam are opening the batting inning of Pakistan but failed to provide a good opening start in both matches. Haidar Ali is out of form for the last ten matches but still, he is part of the playing eleven. Iftikhar Ahmed performed well in the first match but failed to put some handsome runs on the board in the previous match. We saw some good efforts by Shan Masood in both previous matches. He was the highest run-scorer of the previous match with 44 runs to his name in 38 balls with the help of three boundaries. Mohammad Nawaz scored 22 runs while Shadab Khan could manage to score 17 runs.

Netherlands was beaten by India in the previous match by a handsome margin of 56 runs. They lost the toss and were asked to field first. The performance of their bowling unit was good in the first ten overs but was charged by a lot of runs in the next ten overs. They leaked a total of 179 runs in 20 overs. van Meekeren was the most successful bowler from their side with one wicket to his name in four overs against 32 runs. Fred Klaassen also picked one wicket while he was charged with 33 runs in four overs. Tim Pringle, Bas de Leede, van Beek, and Shariz Ahmad were the bowlers who failed to pick any wicket in the previous match.

The batting order of Netherlands also failed to give the best performance in the previous match. They could manage to score just 123 runs while chasing the target of 180 runs. Tim Pringle was the most successful and highest run-scorer from their side with 20 runs to his name on 15 balls with the help of one boundary and the same huge six. Colin Ackermann scored 17 runs while Shariz Ahmad remained not after scoring 16 runs. Max ODowd and Bas de Leede also scored 16 runs each. Netherlands should give its best performance in this match to open the account on the points table.

Pakistan had played just one match against Netherlands which they won that match with a handsome margin of 82 runs back in 2009.

The 29th match of World Cup T20 2022 is going to be held at Perth Stadium, Perth. We had observed in the previous matches played here that the pitch here at this venue is good for batting. The pitch is bouncy and fast and run-scoring is not much easy in early and middle overs. We are hoping that the surface is bound to get slower and be a bit more difficult for batting in this match. A score of 170 is going to be tough to chase.

The weather forecast in Perth is predicting some clouds around on match day and the weather forecast is also predicting some chances of rain but we are hoping for a full and uninterrupted match.
