England vs Namibia 34th Match ICC T20 World Cup 2024

It’s the final match of Group B, with England facing off against Namibia in Antigua on Saturday. Defending champions England are coming off a dominant win over Oman and are eager to secure their second victory of the tournament. Namibia, meanwhile, hopes to finish their campaign on a high note by upsetting the highly favored English team.

Namibia (NAM) started the T20 World Cup with a thrilling Super Over win against Oman. However, they were outplayed by Australia in their next match and subsequently lost to Scotland, ending their hopes of reaching the Super 8 stages. Despite this, captain Gerhard Erasmus remains proud and is focused on taking away the positives from their campaign.

England (ENG) had a massive victory against Oman, winning with 101 balls to spare. This win keeps their hopes alive for advancing to the Super 8 stage. They could still make it to the next phase of the tournament as the second-place team if Australia defeats Scotland.

In Thursday’s game at this venue we saw pace for the quick bowlers as well as plenty of turn for the spinners. England also showed that you can score quick runs on the pitch at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium and we expect a par score to be approaching 175.
