The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 is all set to begin on October 16 in Australia and the teams have started gearing up for the global tournament. The event will start with the First-Round games being played first, which consist of two groups of four teams each. The teams that finish in the top two positions in the T20 World Cup points table (of their group) will move to the Super 12 stage.
Eight teams have qualified for the Super 12 stage, and four more will join after the conclusion of the First Round fixtures. While the tournament is being hosted by Australia, there are a few teams who do not have much experience playing on Australian soil. The United Arab Emirates and the Netherlands are two such teams.
UAE and Netherlands are a part of Group A in the First-Round and will lock horns on October 16 at the Simonds Stadium, Geelong. The two teams have previously clashed on 10 occasions, having played 9 games in the 20-over format and just one game in the 50-over format. At the T20 World Cup, they have squared off just once, which lasts back to March 2014. Notably, they’ve not played each other in the traditional format of the game, that is the Tests.
Netherlands and UAE have not met each other since October 2019, and that is when the two teams played their last international game against each other. The two teams have not played a single ODI game since 1996, which remains to be their first and last meetup in the format to date. They’ve faced each other in nine T20Is to date, and the Netherlands has an upper hand with five wins.
As the T20 World Cup 2022 begins, the fans can keep up with the Cricket Live Scores on CricTracker throughout the tournament till the summit clash, which is set to take place on November 13, 2022.
