IND Vs NED Match Prediction: The 2026 T20 World Cup is being hosted by India, with some matches being played in India. This match is a Group A game and will see two teams with very different expectations in this tournament play their last group game.
India comes into this tournament as the overwhelming favourites. Not only do they host the 2026 T20 World Cup, but they also come into it as the defending champions. Finally, they are also in excellent T20I form as of late. They automatically qualified for this tournament as the hosts. Late last year, they beat Australia in their home turn in a T20 series, before beating South Africa in a T20I series. This year, after an ODI series loss to New Zealand at home, the Men in Blue thrashed the Kiwis 4-1 in T20Is. Most recently, they beat the Proteas in their only warm-up game before the World Cup.
India survived an upset scare in their opening game against the United States of America, but ended up winning the match comfortably in the end. Then came an easy win against Namibia. In their third game, the co-hosts thrashed their arch-rivals Pakistan.
Meanwhile, the Netherlands qualified for the final round of European qualifiers for the 2026 T20 World Cup directly. They then finished first in the final round of qualifiers to make it to the World Cup. Most recently, they lost aT20I series to Bangladesh. They also lost their only warm-up game before the start of this competition to Zimbabwe.
The Netherlands lost their opening game of the tournament against Pakistan. Then came a game against Namibia, which they won handily. The Netherlands were then demolished in their third game by the United States of America

IND Vs NED Match 36 2026 T20 World Cup Narendra Modi Stadium Pitch Report
The Narendra Modi Stadium is considered a haven for batters. It is the batsman who rules the roost here. As most pitches in this ground are made out of red soil, the ball gets a lot of bounce after pitching, a bounce that is even. This results in the ball coming onto the bat quite nicely. The bounce also ensures that pace bowlers can try to create something here. While there is not much lateral movement here, the fast bowlers can use the bounce to surprise the batters and take wickets. The square boundaries here are about mid-60s metres in length, while the straight boundaries go as far as 78m away from the batters.
