- Pakistan and Netherlands will play their third match against each other in the men’s Cricket World Cup; their last match was back in the 2003 World Cup at Paarl where Pakistan won by 97 runs and before that Pakistan won at Lahore in 1996 by eight wickets.
- Netherlands return to the men’s Cricket World Cup for the first time since the 2011 edition where they lost all their six matches; it will be their fifth appearance in the men’s Cricket World Cup (1996, 2003, 2007 and 2011) and they’ll be looking to win their first match in the competition since defeating Scotland in 2007.
- Netherlands have won two of their last five men’s ODI matches (T1 L2) which happened to be during the men’s Cricket World Cup qualifiers in Zimbabwe; in two of those five men’s ODIs, they scored 362 and 374, their two highest scores in the format.
- Pakistan have won their first match of a men’s Cricket World Cup only once in in the last five editions of the Cricket World Cup (L4), a 205-run win against Kenya in 2011; their losses have come against Australia (2003), West Indies (2007 and 2019), and India (2015).
- Pakistan have scored 37.2% of their runs from singles in men’s ODIs in 2023, the highest percentage of any team among full member nations; they have scored only 43.8% of their runs from boundaries in the format in 2023, the lowest out of all full member nations.
- Shaheen Shah Afridi (Pakistan) has the best bowling average (14.6) and strike rate (17.6) by a Pakistan bowler in men’s Cricket World Cup history (min. five innings bowled); Afridi also has the best figures by a Pakistan bowler in a men’s Cricket World Cup game (6/35 against Bangladesh at Lord’s on 5 July 2019).
- Netherlands’ opening pair of Max O’Dowd and Vikramjit Singh have scored 710 runs together in men’s ODIs in 2023, the third highest partnership runs by a duo in the format this year; O’Dowd and Vikramjit have scored 1,039 runs together in their careers, the most ever by a Netherlands duo in men’s ODIs.
- Mohammad Rizwan (Pakistan) has scored 628 runs as keeper in men’s ODIs 2023, the second most by a keeper this year after West Indies’ Shai Hope (632); it is the most runs scored by a Pakistan keeper in a calendar year in the format beating Moin Khan’s 574 runs back in 1997.
- Netherlands’ Bas de Leede has scored 285 runs and taken 15 wickets in men’s ODIs in 2023; he’s only the second Dutch player to score 250+ runs and take 10+ wickets in a calendar year in the format since Ryan ten Doeschate did so in 2007 (356 runs and 23 wickets).
