Harare (Zimbabwe), March 20 A full-strength Zimbabwe will host the Netherlands in a three match ODI series to complete their ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Super League fixtures and start preparations for the Cricket World Cup Qualifier also on home soil.Zimbabwe will be boosted by the return of key players Sikandar Raza and Ryan Burl, while Blessing Muzarabani, Sean Williams and Tendai Chatara have also been selected after missing the recent Test series against the West Indies through injury.The Netherlands have also named a strong squad although all-rounder Bas de Leede has been ruled out due to a heel injury and been replaced by 19-year-old Aryan Dutt.Both teams will use this ODI series with games scheduled on March 21, 23, 25, to start tuning-up for the Cricket World Cup Qualifier also to be held in Zimbabwe, where the last two spots at the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 will be up for grabs.Zimbabwe and the Netherlands share the bottom two places in the Super League standings and are already out of contention for the eight direct qualification spots for the Cricket World Cup later this year.The Netherlands will bank more valuable experience in the format and in similar conditions when they play two ODIs in South Africa in the week after their tour of Zimbabwe.
