TheNetherlands men's national cricket team (Dutch:Nederlands cricketteam), usually referred as "The Flying Dutchmen" is a team that representsthe Netherlands inmen's international cricket and is administered by theRoyal Dutch Cricket Association.
Cricket has been played in the Netherlands since at least the 19th century, and in the 1860s was considered a major sport in the country. Other sports – notablyfootball andfield hockey – have long since surpassed cricket in popularity amongst the Dutch, but today there are around 6,000 cricketers in the Netherlands. The first national association, the forerunner of today's Royal Dutch Cricket Association, was formed in 1890 and the Netherlands achieved Associate Membership of theInternational Cricket Council (ICC) in 1966.
The Netherlands have taken part in all elevenICC Trophy/World Cup Qualifier tournaments, winning the competition in Canada in 2001 and finishing as runners-up three times (in 1986, 1990 and 2023). The Netherlands also participated in the 1996, 2003, 2007, 2011 and 2023Cricket World Cups, and from 1995 onwards the national team entered the English domesticNatWest Trophy competition (and its successor, theC&G Trophy). In 2004 they playedfirst-class cricket in theICC Intercontinental Cup, drawing withScotland in Aberdeen and then suffering from aninnings defeat againstIreland inDeventer.
The Netherlands enjoyed fullOne Day International status from 1 January 2006 until 1 February 2014.[8] They regainedTwenty20 International status in June 2014, having played their first match in this format in 2008.[9] The Netherlands regained their ODI status after the conclusion of the2018 Cricket World Cup Qualifier in March 2018. They had guaranteed this status before the tournament as a result of winning the2015–17 ICC World Cricket League Championship and thus qualifying for the2020–23 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League, and retained the status until the2023 Cricket World Cup Qualifier.
In April 2018, the ICC decided to grant fullTwenty20 International (T20I) status to all its members. Therefore, allTwenty20 matches played between the Netherlands and otherICC members after 1 January 2019 have the full T20I status.[10]Scott Edwards is the current team captain.[11]
Cricket was introduced to the Netherlands by British soldiers during theNapoleonic Wars in the 19th century.[12] Further clubs came into existence in the 1870s. The Netherlands national team played their first game in 1881. They fielded 22 players against anUxbridge Cricket Club XI, but still lost by an innings. The Dutch Cricket Union was formed in 1890, with 18 member clubs, four of which are still in existence today.[13]
The first national tournament was held the following year, and was won byHaagsche CC. English touring teams then began visiting in 1890 including one in 1891 that featured the author ofSherlock Holmes, SirArthur Conan Doyle.[13]
In 1894, the Gentlemen of Holland were the first Dutch team to visit England. The tour included a game against theMCC atLord's, which the MCC won by an innings and 169 runs.[14] Tours by English sides continued for the rest of the 1890s, which also saw the emergence ofCarst Posthuma, who was later the first Dutch player to play first class cricket.[13] He took 2339 wickets at an average of 8.66 in his career in the Netherlands.[15]
1901 saw another visit to England by the Gentlemen of Holland. They played five games on the tour, drawing two and losing the remainder.[16] 1905 saw the first international game againstBelgium, which finished in a draw.[13] Cricket began a decline in popularity in the first decade of the 20th century, particularly amongst young athletes, due, in part, to the Dutch sympathizing with the Boers in the Boer War and therefore not being attracted to a game with links to England.[17]
In 1910, the Dutch team visitedBelgium to take part in an exhibition tournament, which also featured the MCC, Belgium andFrance. They lost to the MCC by 2 wickets,[18] and to France by 63 runs,[19] but beat Belgium by 116 runs.[20]
DuringWorld War I, in which the Netherlands remained neutral, large numbers of British officers wereinterned in the country, and many of these joined local cricket clubs. A team made up of these players even won the Dutch championship in 1918.[13]
The Flamingos, a Dutch touring side, was formed in 1921, and later made several tours of England. Tours by English teams also continued in this period. The 1930s are said to be the heyday of Dutch cricket. In 1934, the first Dutch women's league was formed, and the women's national team played two games against Australia in 1937, losing heavily in both. Cricket was of course curtailed after the German invasion in 1940.[13]
The 1950s saw visits to the Netherlands byAustralia and theWest Indies, in addition to their first match againstDenmark. In 1958, the Cricket Board received a Royal Charter, and became the "Koninklijke Nederlandse Cricket Bond", a name which it retains to this day.[13]
In August 1964, the Netherlands achieved their first victory against a Test-playing nation when they beat Australia by three wickets at The Hague.[13] They were rewarded withassociate membership of the ICC two years later.[21]

The first twoICC Trophy tournaments, in 1979 and 1982, brought little success to the Dutch, who were eliminated in the first round in both tournaments. But in the1986 tournament, they finished as runners-up toZimbabwe. The same year,Paul-Jan Bakker became the first Dutch player to play county cricket.[13] In 1989, the Dutch beat a strongEngland XI that included two future England captains,Alec Stewart andNasser Hussain, by 3 runs.[22]
In 1990 the Netherlands hosted theICC Trophy, the first such tournament outside England, and again finished runners-up to Zimbabwe.[13] In 1991 they achieved a five-wicket win over a West Indies XI,[23] followed in 1993 by a seven-wicket win over an England XI[24] and in 1994 a nine-wicket win over aSouth Africa XI.[25] In 1994 the Dutch finally qualified for theWorld Cup, after finishing third inthat year's ICC Trophy. In theWorld Cup itself in 1996, they were eliminated in the first round, but performed with some credit in their game against England.[13]

1995 saw the Netherlands enter theNatWest Trophy for the first time. They took part in this tournament for ten years, and their best performance came in1999 when they reached the fourth round, beatingDurham along the way.
The Netherlands failed to qualify for the1999 World Cup, as they could only manage sixth in the1997 ICC Trophy. However, the country hosted one World Cup match, betweenKenya and South Africa atAmstelveen.[13]
The Netherlands competed in the firstEuropean Championship in 1996, coming second. They have competed in every tournament since, winning in 1998 and 2000.[13]
2001 finally saw the Netherlands win the ICC Trophy, beatingNamibia in the final inToronto. They thus qualified for the2003 World Cup. They again failed to progress beyond the first round in the tournament, but recorded their first one-day international win over Namibia during the tournament.Feiko Kloppenburg (with 121) andKlaas-Jan van Noortwijk (134 not out) scored the first two One Day International centuries in the side's history.[13]
In the2005 ICC Trophy, the Netherlands finished 5th, qualifying for the2007 Cricket World Cup, and gaining one-day International status until the2009 ICC World Cup Qualifier. Their first one-day international with this new status was scheduled to be againstKenya in March 2006; however this match was cancelled due to a Kenyan tour ofBangladesh. Instead their first ODI with this status (and their twelfth overall) came againstSri Lanka; this was their first ODI at home. However Sri Lanka won the two match series 2–0, with a then-record ODI score of 443–9.[13]
The Dutch played their first Intercontinental Cup match of 2006 againstKenya in Nairobi in March. The game was drawn, but the Netherlands gained six points for a first innings lead.[26] In August, the Netherlands competed in Division One of theEuropean Championship. They beatDenmark andItaly, but lost toScotland and their game againstIreland was rained off. They finished third in the tournament.[13]
In November, the Dutch travelled to South Africa. They first played an Intercontinental Cup match againstBermuda:David Hemp achieved what was then a competition record score of 247not out in the drawn match.[27] This was followed by a triangular series against Bermuda andCanada, which they won.[28] Their final game of 2006, also in South Africa, was an Intercontinental Cup game against Canada. They won the match by 7 wickets, withRyan ten Doeschate setting a new competition record individual score of 259 not out.[29]
In early 2007, they travelled toNairobi, Kenya to take part inDivision One of theWorld Cricket League, finishing third out of six.[30] This was followed by the2007 World Cup in the West Indies, where they were eliminated in the first round, though they did beatScotland along the way.[31]
Following the World Cup, the team underwent a period of transformation. CaptainLuuk van Troost retired, as didTim de Leede and their coach Peter Cantrell.Daan van Bunge also opted to take a break from international cricket, and the new coach opted not to retain the services of bowling coachIan Pont.
In June 2007, they visited Canada, first winning an Intercontinental Cup match against Canada inKing City, Ontario.[32] They then won the first ODI by 117 runs,[33] with the second one being abandoned.[34] They then played a quadrangular series in Ireland, losing by ten wickets to theWest Indies,[35] and by one run toIreland,[36] with the game against Scotland being abandoned due to rain.[37]
In August 2008, The Netherlands participated in the2009 ICC World Twenty20 Qualifier. This was their debut playingTwenty20 International matches.[38] They finished in first place in Group B, based on their run-rate.[39] After beating Scotland in the semi-finals,[40] the final was abandoned due to rain and the trophy was shared between the Netherlands and Ireland.[41]
The Netherlands caused a sensation in the cricketing world by beating England[42] in the opening match of theICC World Twenty20 2009,[43] whilst being 500/1 outsiders.[44]

They lost their second match to the eventual winners Pakistan[45] and did not qualify for the Super 8 stage based on run rate.
On 20 July 2010, The Netherlands beat a full-member nation for the first time in an ODI. In a one-off match shortened by rain to 30 overs a side, they beat Bangladesh by 6 wickets.[46] The win in combination with their winning percentage against other associate and affiliate nations resulted in The Netherlands being included in ICC's official ODI-rankings.[47][48]

On 22 February 2011, The Netherlands posted their highest ever total against a full-member nation, scoring 292 against England, batting first at the2011 Cricket World Cup.Ryan Ten Doeschate top scored 119 from 110 balls. However, the Netherlands were unable to defend their strong total and failed to pull off a huge shock, England winning by 6 wickets with 2 overs to spare. They eventually failed to win any of their group matches and were last in their Group.
In September 2011, Netherlands whitewashedKenya in a short two-match ODI series held at home.[49]
In the2014 ICC World Twenty20, Netherlands had one win and one loss before their final game. In order to go through on net run rate againstZimbabwe andIreland, they needed to chase down Ireland's score in 14.2 overs or less. As Ireland scored 189, this seemed unlikely. However, strong and aggressive batting enabled them to score 193/4 in 13.5 overs, securing passage to the2014 ICC World Twenty20 Super 10s. Although they lost their first three games in the group, including a 39/10 againstSri Lanka, they pulled off an upset againstEngland in their last game.
In June 2014, Nepal along withNetherlands grantedT20I status by theICC board at the annual conference inMelbourne.[9]
In their last match of the2022 ICC T20 World Cup, The Netherlands defeatedSouth Africa in a massive upset, knocking them out of the tournament as a result, also finishing in their best ever position (8th) to date in aT20 World Cup.[50]
