Netherlands have played 6 times against Pakistan and they have lost all the 6 matches, so far.
Players who may impress in Netherlands team are Vikramjit Singh, Teja Nidamanuru. Aryan Dutt & Bas De Leede by their performancetoday.

Though, Pakistan may win their match comfortably but cricket is an unpredictable game and we should not predict something until last ball is bowled.
