England vs Netherlands 40th Match ICC World Cup 2023 - Match Preview, Prediction

England is set to face the Netherlands in Match 40 of the 2023 Cricket World Cup at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium this Wednesday. England, the reigning champions from the 2019 Cricket World Cup, have faced a challenging title defense, winning just one of their seven matches.
On the other hand, the Netherlands has achieved a historic feat by winning two of their seven games, marking their best performance at a Cricket World Cup. Join us as we provide a preview of this day-night fixture, set to kick off in Pune at 14:00 local time.
Despite showing promise in their recent bowling performance and an improved batting display against Australia, England's batting lineup remains plagued by a lack of confidence. This makes their upcoming encounter with the Netherlands far from a guaranteed victory for England.
The Netherlands, having secured victories against South Africa and Bangladesh earlier in the tournament, enter this clash against England with genuine belief in their ability to secure their third win of the 2023 Cricket World Cup. Their success will largely hinge on their batting performance, offering them an excellent opportunity for victory.
