ICC T20 World Cup Europe Qualifier 2025 will conclude on Friday, July 11, 2025, with the Netherlands playing Italy in the tenth and final match at Sportpark Westvliet in The Hague, the Netherlands.
The Netherlands, captained by Scott Edwards, will attempt to prevent Italy from winning, which would qualify them for their first ICC T20I World Cup. Joe Burns, the captain of Italy and a former top-level Australian, will be vital to the Italian team on Friday.
Italy’s current NRR of +1.722 is significantly higher than that of Scotland (-0.150) and Jersey (+0.430). In the event that Italy loses, Jersey or Scotland would have to win their match by a very large margin and hope that Italy loses by a large margin in order to pass Italy.
Italy will automatically qualify for the 2026 T20 World Cup if they defeat the Netherlands in their final game on Friday, giving them an insurmountable advantage of seven points. For them, this would make all Net Run Rate computations meaningless.
