ENG vs NAM highlights T20 World Cup 2024
England beat Namibia by 41 runs in a rain-curtailed 10-overs a side match number 34 of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in North Sound, Antigua on Saturday, June 15 (16 according to Indian time). With this win, they move to the second spot in Group B and now Scotland would have to take at least one point against Australia to take over the English and enter the Super 8.
Namibia skipper Gerhard Erasmus had won the toss and decided to bowl first against England. Due to rain delay, the match was first reduced to 11-overs a side and then to 10-overs a side.
It was a must-win game for England as anything but a win would have seen the defending champions get knocked out from their title defence tournament.
England playing 11: Philip Salt, Jos Buttler(w/c), Jonny Bairstow, Harry Brook, Moeen Ali, Liam Livingstone, Sam Curran, Chris Jordan, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Reece Topley
Namibia playing 11: Nikolaas Davin, Michael van Lingen, Jan Frylinck, JP Kotze, Gerhard Erasmus(c), JJ Smit, David Wiese, Zane Green(w), Ruben Trumpelmann, Bernard Scholtz, Jack Brassell

England vs Namibia Live Score Updates: England win by 41 runs, keep Super 8 hopes alive
Over Summary: 1 0 1 W Wd L1 0; NAM 84-3 after 10 overs
Gerhard Erasmus (1), JJ Smit (0); Jofra Archer 2-0-15-1
Wicket!! David Wiese is also caught and that would be it for Namibia as they are three down, Wiese thanks the crowd as he heads back to the dressing room for one last time in Namibian colours.
That would be it for England as they win by 41 runs and get miles ahead of Scotland in terms of net run rate. The only way England can now be knocked out is if Australia lose to the Scots or that match is called off. Both options at the moment look highly impossible.
