Australia's Claire Polosak said it was a "special day" as she made history in becoming the first female umpire to stand in a men's one-day international.
The 31-year-old officiated in the final of the World Cricket League Division 2 between hosts Namibia and Oman at the weekend and admitted she would "sleep well" after her performance.
"It was a special day for everyone and I wanted to do the best I can," said Polosak.
"There was a little bit of intensity out there, some argy-bargy between the teams but I nipped it in the bud with a quiet word.
"Everyone responded well, there were no issues with player behaviour."
"Big caught behinds, lbws which I was pleased with. You never walk off completely happy but I will sleep well tonight."
