15 OUT! CAUGHT! Muhammad Waseem trudges back to the pavilion just after racking up his half-century. He is devastated. Ben Shikongo comes into the attack and finds the breakthrough. Namibia will hope to tighten the screws here. It is a short ball, outside off, although not much pace on offer. Muhammad Waseem hangs back and looks to cut it away but is unable to clear the fielder at short third man. Ruben Trumpelmann there takes a sharp catch above his head. 97/2

Michael Van Lingen goes backward and takes it over his head. United Arab Emirates lose their first wicket! 39/1

17 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Slightly shorter and on off, slower too. Alishan Sharafu dances down the track to play at it but it a well directed slower delivery which leaves Alishan Sharafu with no much room. He later, tries to go over the keeper's head but there is not much pace to work with. The ball goes behind towards Zane Green who takes an excellent catch diving to his right. 113/3

3 OUT! CAUGHT! Namibia lose another wicket now. They are in a spot of bother here. Basil Hameed is elated with this wicket. It is a short ball, Michael Van Lingen eyes lit up. He swivels and pulls it to deep square leg. He does not get the desired distance on it and hits it straight down the throat of Alishan Sharafu who makes no mistake in the deep. 16/2

1.5 OUT! CAUGHT! United Arab Emirates get the early wicket here. Short and at the pads, Stephan Baard looking to work it on the leg side, gets a leading edge that balloons to Ahmed Raza at extra cover. Junaid Siddique strikes in his first over. 10/1

5 OUT! LBW! The skipper's decision to keep Hameed on for his third over does wonders this time. Namibia lose their third wicket. It is not what they had envisioned for themselves. UAE are right on top here. It is floated, around middle. Nicol Loftie-Eaton goes for the sweep but misses it completely. The ball though straightens a bit and pings him on his thigh pads. There is a loud appeal but he umpire is not interested. Hameed convinces his skipper and they take the review. The Ball Tracking confirms three reds and the umpire is forced to overturn his decision. 26/3

12.1 OUT! TIMBER! What a move to get Khan into the attack. Chundangapoyil Rizwan has hardly been wrong with his decisions tonight. Khan comes 'round the wicket and hurls in a yorker, right in the blockhole. It is tailing in from outside off. Jan Frylinck shuffles and tries to play it leg side but misses. The ball sneaks through the gap and rattles the stumps. Just when Namibia were trying to get back in the game, they lose a wicket which disturbs their progress here. 67/6

7.5 RUN OUT! A huge mix-up and Namibia are five down in a jiffy. A flatter one on off, JJ Smit flicks it to mid on and calls for one. There is a huge mix-up as they look for a second but Jan Frylinck sends JJ Smit back from the halfway. Karthik Meiyappan is quick to run at the ball as he throws towards Ahmed Raza at the non strikers end who does the rest and JJ Smit has to make his way back in to the hut. 46/5

19.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Muhammad Waseem is delighted but so are a few Dutch fans in the crowd. This should be the final nail in the coffin. It is full, outside off. Wiese gets under it and lofts it towards long on. It could've been six but Alishan Sharafu had other ideas. He leaps in the deep and takes a sharp catch. Bernard Scholtz is the new man in. 139/8

12.4 OUT! CLEANED UP! Zahoor Khan seems to be in a hurry to end things here. He picks up his second wicket of the over. UAE have never won a T20 World Cup game and they can change it here. Khan uses the angle really well and dishes a yorker, which is swinging in from outside off. Green fails to dig it away only to see the stumps lit-up. 69/7
