Following their emphatic nine-wicket win over England at the 2023 World Cup opener, New Zealand will go up against the Netherlands in match number six of the tournament. The contest marks the second outing for both sides in this competition, and it will be hosted by the iconic Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on October 9.
As New Zealand and the Netherlands brace themselves for a potential thriller in Hyderabad, here at OneCricket, we look at how they have fared against each other so far in ODIs via their head-to-head record.
New Zealand vs Netherlands Head-to-Head Record in ODIs
New Zealand and the Netherlands first crossed paths in ODIs during their 1996 World Cup meeting in Vadodara. The two sides faced each other in 50-overs internationals once again, albeit 26 years later, across Hamilton and Mount Maunganui for a three-match series in March-April 2022. Having faced each other just four times in the format, here is a look at the overall New Zealand vs Netherlands head-to-head record in ODI matches.

The Netherlands, a non-Test playing nation, is yet to topple New Zealand in ODIs. The high-flying Dutch, under Scott Edwards, will be aiming to rectify that record with their upcoming World Cup 2023 clash, which also marks their fifth ODI meeting overall against the ‘Black Caps’.
