Oman face Namibia in the second game of the five-match T20I series on Tuesday (April 2) at Al Amerat Cricket Academy Ground, Oman.
The first game saw Namibia win the toss and choose to bowl first. The hosts were off to a positive start, with Kashyap Prajapati (33) and Pratik Athavale (15) finding consistent boundaries before losing wickets.
Although Aqib Ilyas (19) tried hard, the likes of Zeeshan Maqsood (9) and Ayaan Khan (5) failed to contribute enough. Tangeni Lungameni was the wrecker-in-chief for Namibia with 3-13 in four overs.
In response, the visitors had a poor start with the wickets of key batters like Malan Kruger (8), Gerhard Erasmus (3), and Jan Frylinck (3). However, the contributions of JP Kotze (16) and Zen Green (26) helped Namibia get back on track.
Later, the experience of David Wiese (23*) came in handy, as he stitched an unbeaten stand of 39 to help the team chase down the target in the 19th over. On that note, let’s check out the other minute details of the game.
