Scotland face Namibia in match 21 of ICC T20 World Cup 2021 from group 2 in Abu Dhabi. Scotland was beaten by Afghanistan in their first game in the Super 12 stage. Meanwhile, this will be Namibia’s first outing in this stage of the tournament. Its like a must-win game for both teams as they face tougher opponents going forward in the tournament.
Scotland was hammered by Afghanistan in their first game. The Afghans scored 190 and then bowled out the Scotts for just 60. There were no positives from that game for the Scottish players as they were completely outplayed in the game.
Namibia, meanwhile, won two games in the qualifiers to make it to the Super 12 stage. However, the stern test for them begins now with them playing tougher teams going forward in the league. David Wiese will continue to be the player the side will depend upon throughout the tournament.
