The Namibia Eagles will lock horns with South Africa Emerging Players in the first T20 of the three-match series at the Wanderers Cricket Ground in Windhoek.
Namibia's last outing was against Uganda earlier in the month. They outclassed the fellow African outfit in both the T20Is and the ODIs, winning all five matches across both formats. With several experienced and in-form players in their ranks, Namibia will start as favorites against South Africa Emerging Players.
South Africa Emerging Players, on the other hand, will bank on the experience of Matthew Breetzke, Thando Ntini, and Jason Smith. They haven't played much cricket in recent times and it will be difficult for them to overcome Namibia.

Pitch Report
The track at the Wanderers Cricket Ground favors the batsmen, with the ball easily coming onto the bat. One can expect a high scoring encounter on Friday.
Pacers and spinners might get some assistance in the second innings when the pitch is expected to slow down a bit. However, with shorter boundaries on offer, batters have the advantage at the venue.
