The Netherlands national cricket team is one of the associate members of the International Cricket Council (ICC). They qualified for their first T20 World Cup in 2009, but failed to make it to the next two editions. They made their reappearance at the tournament in 2014 and have qualified for every edition since then.
The best performance of the Dutch came in 2022 when they finished in top 8 and earned a direct qualification for the 2024 edition. They have a win–loss record of 9–13 from 23 matches.
