The Netherlands cricket team arrived in Bangladesh this morning ahead of a three-match T20I series against the hosts. The 15-member squad, led by experienced captain Scott Edwards, landed in Dhaka before heading to Sylhet, where all three matches will be held.

The series will be played at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium, with fixtures scheduled for August 30, September 1 and September 3. All matches will begin at 6:00pm.

The visitors are set to hold their first practice session at the venue tomorrow as part of their preparations.

Bangladesh, meanwhile, have been in Sylhet since August 20, using the series as part of their build-up to the upcoming Asia Cup.

Ahead of their departure, the Netherlands were forced to make three changes to their original squad. Uncapped 17-year-old batter Cedric de Lange has been called up, along with pacer Sebastiaan Braat and all-rounder Sikander Zulfiqar.

Netherlands squad:
Scott Edwards (c), Noah Croes, Max O’Dowd, Vikramjit Singh, Teja Nidamanuru, Sikander Zulfiqar, Cedric de Lange, Kyle Klein, Aryan Dutt, Paul van Meekeren, Shariz Ahmad, Ben Fletcher, Daniel Doram, Sebastiaan Braat, Tim Pringle.
