CWC 2023 Netherlands Cricket Team Orange on the Pitch

The Netherlands Cricket Team is an associate team that is not as popular in the Cricket world as other international teams but qualified for the Cricket World Cup 2023.

However, there were some big names that represented the Netherlands team in the international arena but also played in different major leagues around the globe.

Players like Ryan Ten Desochate, Tom Cooper, and Roelf Van Der Merwe performed on the world stage and made their name in Cricketing History.
