Commentary
- We are set! David Wiese and Gerhard Erasmus have walked out as the openers for Namibia. A surprise to all as Bilal Khan will bowl the super over for Oman instead of Mehran Khan who looked unplayable today.
- ... SUPER OVER ...
- CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? WE WILL HAVE A SUPER OVER! What a game we have just witnessed here. Oman were down and out at the interval but will now feel that they should have won it on the final delivery. Namibia will be relieved a touch as they have managed to scrape to level terms after a sluggish batting display. It will now be Namibia to bat first as we head into the Super Over. Will we see another close affair in the upcoming one-over shootout? Let's find out.
