New Zealand, who are currently playing the Dutch side in a three-match ODI series are set to return the favour, with a two-match T20I series later in August 2022. The BlackCaps would be touring the European country, with both the T20Is set to be played at the VCC Ground in Voorburg, on August 4 and August 6 respectively.
It would be the first bilateral series for New Zealand in Netherlands, since 1986, where they had played two 40-over contests. New Zealand would travel to the Dutch nation, following their three-match Test series against England, six-match white-ball series against Ireland and three-match white-ball series against Scotland.

"The chance to play the best white ball teams in the world has always been the goal for this team. To test our young players against them, as well as showcase our skills in front of our home fans is so extremely exciting. The Blackcaps coming to The Netherlands again shows the respect we are building in world cricket and I hope all Dutch fans come out and enjoy the contest," Ryan Campbell, the Netherlands head coach, said.
"We're really excited to be touring the Netherlands. They're a team on the rise and it's great that we'll be facing them both home and away this year. Playing against associate teams as a full member nation is a really important part of helping them grow and that can only benefit the world game long term,” Gary Stead said on the tour.
