Netherlands have made three changes to their squad for the upcoming three-match T20I series against Bangladesh beginning August 30. They have handed a maiden call-up to 17-year-old batter Cedric de Lange, who has earned his place on the back of impressive performances at the Under-19 level and in domestic T20s. Netherlands have also recalled Sebastiaan Braat and Sikander Zulfiqar.

The trio has been brought into the squad in place of Ryan Klein, Fred Klaassen and Saqib Zulfiqar. Ryan Klein, Fred Klaassen have been ruled out of the series following injuries, while Saqib Zulfiqar has made himself unavailable, citing personal reasons.

"It's always exciting to bring a youngster into the squad. Cedric has been impressive all summer and he's really earned this call-up. We're looking forward to seeing what he can offer us on this tour and, hopefully, across a long career ahead of him," captain Scott Edwards said.

Netherlands squad: Scott Edwards (c&wk), 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
