Incident? That is to say. Namibia is nowhere near Ireland in strength and experience. But this African team did not leave Ireland today and took place in the Super Twelve of the T20 World Cup!
In the first round, there was a clear equation from Group A against Ireland and Namibia – the team that wins will advance to the Super Twelve of the T20 World Cup. In such a match, everyone put Ireland ahead with experience and strength. The team has the experience to advance to the group stage in ODI or T20 World Cup.
In terms of skills and experience, Irish players are ahead of Namibia by a wide margin. But! There is talk of ‘The Game is a Great Leveler’ হারিয়ে Namibia lost to Ireland by 8 wickets today as if reminded of this revelation of cricket.
Ireland could not do well by batting earlier in this crucial match. Andy Ballburni’s team scored a simple score of 125 runs for 6 wickets. Namibia needed 33 runs in the last 5 overs to chase and win. Gerhard Erasmus and David Weiss put together a great pairing of nine balls to give Namibia a historic victory.
Namibia has only played in the 2003 ODI World Cup before the ICC World Cup. He finished 14th out of 14 teams. Then this time with the T20 World Cup, Namibia made history by going to the group stage north of any World Cup organized by the ICC. Windhoek, the capital of the country, is therefore celebrating today.
Winning Namibia not only ensured the Super Twelve, but also secured a place in the upcoming T20 World Cup. Earlier, the ICC had said that the teams that have reached the Super Twelve this time will also play in the 2022 T20 World Cup, without having to play a separate qualifying round. That is, one ‘loose’ two ‘birds’ killed Namibia.
Details are coming ….
