The Pakistan cricket team toured the Netherlands to play three One Day International (ODI) matches in August 2022.[1][2] The ODI series formed part of the inaugural 2020–2023 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League.[3][4] It was the first bilateral ODI series between the two teams.[5]

Background

[edit]

Pakistan were originally scheduled to tour the Netherlands in July 2020 to play three ODI matches,[6] ahead of their tour of England.[7] It would have been the first bilateral series between the two sides.[8] Pakistan were also scheduled to play a two-match Twenty20 International (T20I) series against Ireland following this series.[9] However, on 22 April 2020, the Dutch government announced that it had banned all events in the country, both sports and cultural, until 1 September 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the Netherlands.[10][11][12]

In April 2022, both the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and the Royal Dutch Cricket Association (KNCB) agreed on rescheduling the series for August 2022.[13][14] Later the same month both cricket boards agreed the itinerary for the tour,[15] with all the matches taking place in Rotterdam.[16]
