Namibia eliminated after UAE defeat

David Weise’s 55 off 36 went in vain as UAE restricted Namibia to 141 for 8 while defending their 148 for 3 in the final Group A match of the first round of the ongoing T20 World Cup at Simonds Stadium, Geelong on Thursday.

Earlier, Muhammad Waseem scored 50 runs off 41 balls while skipper Chundangapoyil Rizwan hit 43 not out off 29 balls as UAE posted a competitive total on the board after opting to bat first.

UAE’s win over Namibia kept both the sides to two points each and thus Netherlands, having four points in kitty, marched into the Super 12s, following table-topper Sri Lanka in Group A.
