    7.1 Skipper strikes first ball! 102ks length ball slanting in with the angle. Lands in line and finishes around leg, pulled with a crouch and finds deep midwicket. Ends Kishan's blitz 104/2
    1.6 6-6-4-out and it's silence!. Looked like he wanted to go along the ground but Samson picks deep midwicket to perfection. He went deep in the crease to a fullish 124ks ball angling into him. He'd been going behind square so far, just chipped it in front of this time. Didn't go through with the shot, and Shikongo finishes with a W 25/1
    11.5 Erasmus' 25-yarder works. Long-off runs left and takes it! Tilak dancing down and driving a length ball through the line. Went off the bottom of the bat. India lose their third wicket in their second-six overs 124/4
    10.1 SKY doesn't take much time to plonk his bat back in but he's walking. Shows how good the keeping was, Green reading the spin away, keeping his hands close to the stumps and pushing the hands through. Scholtz beat SKY with spin and in the air. Delivered a length ball around off as SKY danced down looking to go inside out. Went for the full launch and looked to land the bat back in one motion. Namibia pulling this back 120/3
    18.2 Brilliancy at deep-backward square. Leicher, the sub, ran to the right, threw the ball up, ran behind the ropes before coming back in and taking it cleanly. Was a low full toss that was swatted flat, from the crease 205/5
    18.3 Slinger creates a... run out! Wide length ball, Rinku slaps it straight to cover, takes a couple of steps and gives Dube a yes no. Dube runs further and is sold halfway down. Gentle throw to the bowler and Namibia have two in two 205/6
    19.3 Straight to long-on! Slot ball on middle and leg, Rinku wanted to drive it over long-on but couldn't get underneath it properly. Off the bottom of the bat and India have lost 1 for 4 206/8
    18.6 Forget moon ball, we got Saturn ball! Erasmus with a slinger but with the additional feature of going super slow to fox Axar. He wanted to sweep the 83ks length ball that never arrived off a length. Beat bat, tickled the pad and went onto the stumps 206/7

    7.1 Googly through him. First-ball strike for Varun. Steenkamp making room to lift the length ball through cover, lost his shape completely as he can't adjust to the angle in. Hits middle and leg. 93ks 67/2
    3.4 Frylinck finds the fielder and Arshdeep does the Siu celebration. 250 T20 wickets he has. 120ks knuckle ball into a short length. Doesn't rise much and Frylinck is into the pull a touch too early. Deep midwicket, just brought in, takes the catch 33/1
    9.2 Might be gone, yep. Axar gets around to it at long-off. Loftie-Eaton charges down and looks to drive the 94ks ball, angling in but just outside off, on the up. Got a thick edge 86/3
    10.1 Long-off in play again... and takes it. Captain gone and Namibia lose another. Length ball outside off from around the wicket, Erasmus made room and looked to swipe it across but got a top edge. Game effectively done? 88/5
    9.4 Varun calmly dismantling Namibia here. Smit is another batter trying to whack him from the outset and losing his wicket. 94ks googly lands on a length and holds its line. Smit misses the on-the-rise slog sweep and sees his off stump hit 86/4
    18.2 Is that a hit wicket? Seems like it. Bails are gone. Green went for the reverse sweep, had his feet wide apart and side by side. Followed through with the shot, the bat then hit the top of off stump as the full ball harmlessly went to the keeper 116/10
    12.3 Bumrah takes a stunner, running to the left from short fine leg. The issue was he almost stood for a moment and looked lost, then fell to the left and took it with both stretched hands. Kruger went for the sweep, wanted to go square and along the ground. Got a top edge 94/6
    16.4 Yorker brings out cheers in the crowd. Both bails gone. Seam up, landed just inside the crease. Trumpelmann mad room and looked to block it with bat jamming on bat, drilled it back onto the stumps. Bumrah walks back right after 111/7
    17.3 Taken at long-on by Axar. Slower one outside off, Scholtz made room and slashed. Got an edge as Scholtz was on the move and short-armed it 116/8
    17.4 That's plumb. Given out, Namibia will take the review. Length ball on middle, beat the flick on the inside edge and hit the knee-roll. Hawk-Eye confirms hitting middle 116/9
