IND vs NED World Cup warm-up highlights: Match abandoned due to rain

IND vs NED World Cup 2023 warm-up: India and the Netherlands will lock horns today in their final warm-up game ahead of the World Cup 2023 which is scheduled to start on October 5. India's previous warm-up games against England was washed out without a ball bowled. On the other hand, the Netherlands' game against Australia ended in no result. However, the Dutch bowlers did well to restrict Australia to 188/7 in 23 overs. But their batters couldn't handle the heat conceding a hattrick to Mitchell Starc. How will the Netherlands fare against India? Which top players will be in action? Will rain interrupt play again? All questions will be answered today in this live blog.

    Welcome!!!

    Hello and welcome to the live blog of the warm-up game between India and the Netherlands. Rain has been at the center stage in Thiruvananthapuram and Guwahati.
