Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span>Namibia\u2019s phenomenal national cricket team scored yet another win in their fairytale debut at the ICC T20 World Cup. A splendid first over by Ruben Trumpelmann helped Namibia start their Super 12 campaign on a strong note as they restricted Scotland to 109\/8 in 20 overs. Trumpelmann picked three wickets in the first over and Scotland never recovered from that point.<\/p>\n

Michael Leask showed some resistance in the middle and scored 44 from 27 balls, but apart from him, no other batters could prove their mettle against the Namibian bowling attack.<\/p>\n

JJ Smit remained unbeaten on 32 off 23 balls as he finished off Namibia\u2019s run chase with a big six. Namibia won by 4 wickets (with 5 balls remaining). Ruben Trumpelmann is man of the match.<\/p>\n
