A buoyant Namibia side will face a confident Netherlands outfit in a Group A match of the T20 World Cup 2022 in Geelong on Tuesday, October 18. Both teams will go into the contest having tasted wins in their respective opening games. Namibia stunned Sri Lanka by 55 runs in the tournament opener, while the Dutch got the better of the UAE by three wickets in a close match.While Namibia impressed in the previous edition of the T20 World Cup as well, few, if any, would have given them a chance of defeating Asia Cup champions, Sri Lanka. However, Jan Frylinck put in a memorable all-round display, while JJ Smit, David Wiese, Bernard Scholtz, and Ben Shikongo also came up with crucial contributions to the team’s historic triumph.The Netherlands’ win over the UAE was not as emphatic. Their bowlers, Bas de Leede and Fred Klaassen in particular did very well to restrict the opposition to 111/8. However, the batters almost undid all the good work and they just sneaked home in the end. The Netherlands will take the win though.Today's NAM vs NED toss resultNamibia have won the toss and have opted to bat first.
