South Africa faces a challenging opponent in the Netherlands for their second Group D match in New York on Saturday, following their victory against Sri Lanka in the opening match.

The Proteas might still remember their defeat against the Dutch in last year’s 50-over World Cup, making this encounter significant for them.

Led by Aiden Markram, South Africa aims for a reversal this time. An encouraging sign from their win over Sri Lanka was the impressive performance of Anrich Nortje, who took four wickets on a lively New York pitch.

With Kagiso Rabada, Nortje forms a formidable bowling combination, crucial against a Netherlands team that started their campaign with a six-wicket win over Nepal.

The Dutch side, with frontline batter Max O’Dowd’s half-century and leading pacers Tim Pringle and Logan van Beek’s three wickets each, looks poised for another strong showing to challenge their higher-ranked opponent.

South Africa: Aiden Markram (c), Ottniel Baartman, Gerald Coetzee, Quinton de Kock, Bjorn Fortuin, Reeza Hendricks, Marco Jansen, Heinrich Klaasen, Keshav Maharaj, David Miller, Anrich Nortje, Kagiso Rabada, Ryan Rickelton, Tabraiz Shamsi, Tristan Stubbs.

Netherlands: Scott Edwards (c), Aryan Dutt, Bas de Leede, Kyle Klein, Logan van Beek, Max O’Dowd, Michael Levitt, Paul van Meekeren, Ryan Klein, Saqib Zulfiqar, Sybrand Engelbrecht, Teja Nidamanuru, Tim Pringle, Vikram Singh, Viv Kingma, Wesley Barresi. Travelling reserve: Ryan Klein.
