India face the Netherlands in their last Group A match of the T20 World Cup 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, on Wednesday, February 18.
The contest begins at 7 PM IST, with the toss scheduled for 6:30 PM.
India already secured qualification for the Super 8 stage, where they will meet South Africa, Zimbabwe, and the West Indies. Suryakumar Yadav’s team aim to finish the group stage with a perfect record. Their recent 61-run victory over Pakistan showcased their best performance, while earlier wins against the USA and Namibia lacked dominance. The Netherlands match offers India a chance to sharpen their rhythm before the next stage.
Ahmedabad weather conditions favour uninterrupted play, with clear skies and temperatures between 31 and 34 degrees Celsius. Dew is expected to remain minimal, giving the team batting first an advantage.
The Narendra Modi Stadium pitch continues to support batting. Recent first-innings scores of 213, 187, and 175 highlight its run-friendly nature. India, if batting first, could target another high total.
