PITCH AND CONDITIONS

The temperature in Dubai will be around 29 degrees and may rise as the day goes on.

The ICC Academy Ground No.2 is definitely more of a batsman’s wicket compared to some of the more balanced pitches on show in this tournament.

NAMIBIA

  • Namibia lost their two opening matches by large margins but made a winning comeback against Scotland in their third match.
  • Stephan Baard and Ben Shikongo, who were the replacements of Zhivago Groenewald and Pikky Ya France, are likely to retain their places after Namibia’s first victory.
  • Namibia was bowled out for 96 while chasing 141 against the Netherlands
  • They were bowled out for 116 in reply to Papua New Guinea’s 197/7.
  • Jan Frylinck’s 2-15 helped limit Scotland to 135/8 as they claimed a notable victory.

PROBABLE PLAYING XI OF NAMIBIA

Stephan Baard, JP Kotze, Niko Davin, Craig Williams, Gerhard Erasmus (c), JJ Smit, Zane Green (wk), Christi Viljoen, Jan Frylinck, Ben Shikongo, Bernard Scholtz

Bermuda

  • Bermuda lost all three matches they played in this tournament.
  • Janeiro Tucker, who has made his T20I debut in the opening game, scored a half-century in the second match.
