Match Preview
India vs Netherlands 36th Match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 will be played at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad on Wednesday. India have already qualified for the Super 8 after winning all three of their matches, including a dominant 61-run victory over Pakistan. This IND vs NED prediction looks one-sided on paper, with India in red-hot form.
Netherlands, meanwhile, have won just one out of three matches and are coming off a heavy 93-run defeat against USA. Bas de Leede has been their standout performer, but overall consistency has been lacking. The last time these two sides met in a T20 World Cup (2022), India won by 56 runs. With strong momentum and depth in both departments, India are firm favorites in this IND vs NED today match prediction.

IND vs NED Match Prediction & Analysis
India have been dominant throughout the group stage, winning all three matches convincingly. Their batting depth, in-form spinners Axar Patel and Varun Chakaravarthy, and explosive top order make them a well-balanced unit. Netherlands have shown flashes of brilliance through Bas de Leede but lack the overall firepower to challenge a confident Indian side. Considering current form, squad strength, and home conditions, India are overwhelming favorites in this IND vs NED today match prediction.
