It has been a long since we have seen Bangladesh surprising the world of cricket with their sheer abilities. A kind of transformation has always happened with Bangladesh when they play ICC tournaments, in a good way. And it is expected to be the same now. On the other side, the Netherlands have successfully come past their qualifier round with a decent performance. The clash between these two teams is expected to showcase more of their outgrown ability.

NED vs BAN Top Fantasy Picks
Captain: Shakib Al Hasan
S Hasan has great stats against the tier 2 teams, especially in ICC trophies. With him playing a major role in batting and bowling, he will be the captain of our team.
Vice-captain: Mehidy Hasan Miraz
Miraz is an excellent all-rounder who is destructive at batting and has decent off-spin bowling that is well-suited for T20s.
Wicketkeeper: Liton Das
L Das has superior batting techniques. Mushfiqur Rahim’s presence was overshadowing him, and now it was his time to show his skill.
Batters: N Hossain, M O Dowd, A Hossain
M O’Dowd builds his innings with an excellent knack. The amount of risk involved in his shot selection is very low, and that’s why he’s been successful.
N Hossain and A Hossain are two incredible young talents on a bigger stage now.
All-rounders: S Hasan, M Viraz, B Leede
B Leede, so far in this tournament, has been an asset for the Netherlands. He makes himself a mandatory pick.
Bowlers: P Meekeran, M Rahman, E Hossein, Klaassen
P Meekeran and Klaasen are the two main reasons the Netherlands has come to this Super 12. Klaasen goes with his in-swingers, while Meekeran dons the role to go through the late middle overs for the dutch side.
M Rahman is the star bowler of Bangladesh. With so much experience, he will be the man to watch in their opening game.
Other captain options are B Leede and F Klaassen.
