Dublin Guardians and Amsterdam Flames will now meet at Sportpark Duivesteijn, Voorburg, with both teams looking for an important result. Dublin will be desperate to end their losing run, while Amsterdam will aim to build on their recent victory and strengthen their position in the competition.

Sportpark Duivesteijn Pitch Report

The surface at Sportpark Duivesteijn has provided a reasonably even contest between batters and bowlers in the European T20 Premier League. The pitch can be a little slower, which means batters may need to spend some time in the middle before taking greater risks. Rotating the strike and choosing the right balls to attack could be particularly important through the middle overs.

Fast bowlers have generally found more assistance than spinners at this venue, with seamers accounting for a good number of wickets. Bowlers who hit the deck hard and maintain disciplined lengths could make life difficult for the batters. However, once settled, attacking players can still score quickly, and a total in the range of 165-175 could be competitive on this surface.
