Playing their last group-stage match of the tournament, assertive India are set to take on Netherlands on Sunday at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. India have been the unbeaten side in the tournament with their brilliantly consistent performances in all of their past eight matches. India are topping the table with 16 points and the positive NRR of +2.456. Throughout the tournament up to now, India have been the most successful side in terms of victories and performances. Going into this match, India will only hope to maintain their unbeatable tag ahead of the semi-final. India have all their players in their top-level forms, batting attack has been outstanding with the highly impressive performances from Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Shreyas Iyer and Shubman Gill, whereas bowling attack swank the likes of Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami and Mohammed Siraj in pace unit and Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav in spin attack. 

India would also be aware of the challenge Netherlands are capable of throwing, although the dutch are placed at the bottom in the points table. Netherlands have already showed their capabilities by beating raging South Africa earlier in the tournament. This too would be the last match in the group stage for Netherlands but they have their own goal to fulfil. If Netherlands beat India then they could have the chance to move up in the points table to secure their position for the qualification into the Champions Trophy. There is a lot for India too, because their intent would be to utilise this game to get into the rhythm for semi-final.
