The Australia camp suffered an early jolt with massive defeats from unbeaten hosts India and a rampaging South Africa, but the five-time ODI World Cup champions have bounced back with convincing wins over Sri Lanka and Pakistan. Despite the victories, Australia's performances in their last two games were not perfect, and the underperforming middle-order and fast-bowling departments are areas of concern. Netherlands would look to exploit these vulnerabilities when they take on the Aussies for match number 24 of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 in Delhi on Wednesday.

The Dutch had earlier pulled off a stunning upset against South Africa, but faced a five-wicket loss at the hands of Sri Lanka. Nevertheless, the Scott Edwards-led outfit will be happy with the way it fought in that game. After collapsing to 91/6, a redoubtable seventh-wicket partnership between Holland's Sybrand Engelbrecht and Logan van Beek took them to a respectable 𒐪total of 262. Netherlands then started well with the new ball and made two early inroads, but the Lankans simply proved to be a better unit on the day.
Al♋l considered, Australia will be expected by most to win Wednesday's game. But given how the World Cup has gone so far and looking at the Dutch's recent performances, the Pat Cummims-led side can undermine them at their🍎 own peril.
Head-to-head Record
Australia have faced Netherlands just twice in One Day Internationals - during the 2007 and 2003 World Cups, respectively. Australia expectedly won with ease on both occasions. But a lot has chan🌸ged sice then, and Netherlands are a very different side from then.
Weather Conditions
Delhi will be warm, though not as unforgiving as Mumbai. The maximum temperature is expected to be around 31 degrees Celsius and the minimum cloꦛse to 19 degrees. There is no chance of rain, but the air quality will most likely be poor.
Squads
Australia: David Warner, Marnus Labuschagne, Steven Smith, Travis Head, Cameron Green, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Mitchell Marsh, Sean Abbott, Alex Carey (wk), Josh Inglis (wk), Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins (c)
Netherlands: Max O'Do📖wd, Teja Nidamanuru, Wesley Barresi, Bas de Leede, Colin Ackermann, Roelof van der Merwe, Saqib Zulfiqar, Sybrand Engelbrecht, Vikramjit Singh, Noah Croes (wk), Scott Edwards (c and wk), Aryan Dutt, Kyle Klein, Logan van Beek, Paul van Meekeren, Ryan Klein and Shariz Ahmad
