India National Cricket Team vs Netherlands National Cricket Team Match: India will take on the Netherlands in their fourth Group A match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Wednesday, February 18, 2026. Having already secured a spot in the Super 8s with three wins from as many matches, India’s result against the Dutch side will not affect their tournament standing. The team management is expected to make several changes to test bench strength and rest key players ahead of the next stage.

Fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah, world No. 1 T20I bowler Varun Chakaravarthy and all-rounder Hardik Pandya could sit out today's match. Mohammed Siraj, Arshdeep Singh and Washington Sundar are expected to replace them.

In batting, India is likely to retain its lineup despite opener Abhishek Sharma’s recent struggles. Sharma, who leads the ICC T20I batter rankings, has failed to score in four of his last six innings, including two ducks against the USA and Pakistan in the tournament. Tilak Varma and Axar Patel have also underperformed with the bat but contributed with the ball against Pakistan.

India’s likely XI: Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan (wk), Tilak Varma, Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Washington Sundar, Shivam Dube, Rinku Singh, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Arshdeep Singh and Mohammed Siraj.
