🏏ICC T20I WC 2024: Match 24: Australia vs Namibia @6.00 AM IST🏏 - Page 3

Yay no rain

Adam Zampa: If we play to full potential, we can definitely test it out at the back end. Playing good cricket at the right time is important. (On the breeze) We are pretty familiar with a lot of the Caribbean grounds. It is a conversation we have had. Lot of guys have played in the Caribbean and you have to make use of it, when batting and bowling. (On how he is feeling after the time off) Feeling great. Had a bit of family time to freshen up and this was my priority 100%. We played against them (Namibia) in the warm-up, got a bit of information and know a bit of their players now. Will be a challenge tonight for sure.

Pitch report: The breeze is about 17 kph, pleasant conditions for the players. 67m and 65m square boundaries, 70-odd down the ground. Looks like a good wicket, not much grass. Pace of the ball will be the key. Adam Zampa is the one to watch out for on this track. Overall, a very good wicket.

Ravi: "With all the talk of Australia qualifying with a win today and England needing to win against Oman and Namibia, wouldn't it be amazing if Namibia beat both Australia and England and Scotland beat Australia so Scotland and Namibia qualify for the next round?"

The national anthems are done but hang on...a bit of drizzle has engulfed the stadium and the covers are being brought on. Looks like we will have a slight delay to proceedings.

Starc not playing .few members chose him . Probably due to time zone 

Oh, the covers are off and the players are out on the park. The two openers are ready to roll. A slip in place and here we go! Just a delay of two minutes that was. Let's go!

Michael van Lingen and Davin are at the crease. Michael van Lingen is on strike. Hazlewood will open the attack

Namibia Innings

0.6 Hazlewood to van Lingen, FOUR runs

Edged and four! Back of a length outside off. Pitches and nips away against the angle. van Lingen, wafting at it, gets a thick outside edge that flies over slip!

END OF OVER 1

7 runs

NAM: 7/0

CRR: 7.00
