Australia (AUS), the 2021 winners, will take on Namibia (NAM) in the T20 World Cup 2024 match on Wednesday, June 12, at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in North Sound, Antigua.
Australia just defeated England, their bitter rivals, by a score of 36 runs in Barbados. In the current iteration of the major event, the Australian team became the first to record a total of 200 or more. After reaching 201/7, they held the Three Lions to 165/6.
Australia beat Oman by 39 runs in their opening encounter after scoring 164/5 in their 20 overs. The Men in Yellow have a game in hand and may advance to the Super Eight with a victory on Wednesday.
In the meantime, Namibia triumphed in their first Super Over match against Oman despite falling short of a pitiful 110 on a challenging course. Nevertheless, they were unable to build on this victory as they lost to Scotland in their subsequent match. The European team needed five wickets and nine balls to spare as they pursued a 156-run goal.
