Both have the potential to make a significant impact on the game and their form will depend how well the Men in Green will do in the ongoing tournament.
Pakistan's top order batters are in good form but their shaky middle order and the spinners continue to remain a reason of some serious concern. However, minnows Netherland, playing just their 5th World Cup, shouldn't cause much trouble to the Asian side. Openers Imam ul Haq and Fakhar Zaman will be keen to get some runs under their belt. Iftikhar, Salman and vice-captain Shadab have been inconsistent. Haris Rauf, Shaheen Afridi and Hasan Ali are the three pacers. Naseem Shah's absence is a big loss to Pakistan.
