It was a historic year for Dutch one-day cricket, coming back from a challenging Super League season to defeat the likes of Scotland, Zimbabwe, and the West Indies to secure a spot in the Cricket World Cup. In October and November, the team defeated South Africa and Bangladesh in the main tournament. De Leede, who remained an important member of their bowling lineup, elevated his batting game and delivered big blows all season long. The most notable of these came when he crushed Scotland in the de facto championship match to secure a spot in the World Cup at the Qualifier.
