This match is being streamed on ICC.tv
New Zealand is missing a couple of key international players due to other commitments. Roelof van der Merwe and Paul van Meekeren will miss the T20 series and will be missed for a side already set to struggle against a strong New Zealand lineup.
Logan van Beek is available for this match and his bowling will be key for the Dutch.
Bas de Leede is our player to watch for the series. His talent is clear to see and the 22-year-old will see this as an opportunity to show his class against a top team in New Zealand.

New Zealand Trends
New Zealand is unbeaten in their last 9 matches. They are currently on a European tour and have won all 9 white ball matches, 5 of them have been T20s and 4 have been ODIs.
New Zealand racked up a record score in their last match agaionst Scotland, details below. They scored a massive 254 runs batting first and we would expect to see almost the same lineup here. The opener, Guptill, may return but it would be a big call to leave out one of the openers after the last performance. If they get in to bat first you could see another huge score here.
New Zealand coasted past Scotland in the last matches but the games against Ireland were a lot closer. In the ODI’s they needed a record-breaking final over to avoid defeat when chasing 301.
