The Netherlands Women go into Match 25 with their semi-final hopes alive but under pressure, sitting in the mid-table cluster with four wins from six and a positive net run rate that keeps them just behind the leading trio despite a narrow loss to Scotland in their last outing. Uganda Women, meanwhile, are clinging on near the foot of the table with two wins and four defeats, and need a big performance to climb away from the lower rungs after a stop-start campaign where their batting has often left too much for the bowlers to do.
Netherlands have built their tournament around a disciplined bowling unit and a flexible top order, regularly defending middling totals and riding on their superior net run rate of around +0.85 to stay ahead of the pack chasing the top four. A victory here would not only consolidate their position above Papua New Guinea and Uganda but also give them a real shot at finishing just behind the likes of Scotland, Thailand and UAE.
For Uganda, this fixture doubles up as a chance to sign off the group phase on a positive note after spending most of the competition locked in a mini-battle with Namibia and Tanzania at the bottom end of the standings. With their net run rate still in the red and only four points on the board, they may be out of the knockout conversation, but an upset over a higher-ranked Netherlands side would be a statement result for a young group learning its way in high-pressure T20 cricket.
