Sri Lanka (SL) will square off against Netherlands (NED) in the 38th match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 on Sunday, June 16 (Monday, June 17 IST). The Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium, Gros Islet, St Lucia, will host the encounter.

Sri Lanka have had a rough campaign so far in the T20 World Cup 2024. They lost the first two group-stage games against South Africa and Bangladesh. However, Sri Lanka had a chance to bounce back in the previous game against Nepal, but unfortunately, it was washed out due to rain.

Meanwhile, Netherlands had a good start with their first victory in their opening game. However, they failed to keep it up in the next two games and lost both.

Netherlands will be looking to secure a massive win in the upcoming game to improve their NRR and hope Nepal beat Bangladesh by a heavy margin to keep their qualification chances alive.

On that note, here are the three differential picks you can opt for your SL vs NED Dream11 teams.
