There isn’t much to talk about the South Africa vs Netherlands rivalry as the latter does not play any bilateral cricket. Having said that, the Netherlands did spring a surprise over South Africa in the ICC World Cup 2023, and beat the Proteas by 38 runs. Still, on paper, South Africa is a way better team than the European nation.
