Pakistan will face Netherlands in the second match of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Friday.

The two teams have locked horns in just six ODIs since 1996, when they first met at the World Cup in Lahore. Their next World Cup encounter came in 2003 after a Champions Trophy game in 2002.
