Warm-ups conclude as the real battle begins - With the final warm-up fixtures now officially in the books, the period of experimentation and preparation has come to an end. Every squad has had the opportunity to acclimatise to the local conditions and sharpen their tactical blueprints before the world's most prestigious T20 tournament truly ignites. The intensity is set to shift into high gear, promising a relentless schedule of high-octane cricket. You won't want to miss a single delivery as the global elite finally go head-to-head for the ultimate prize. The first game of the ICC T20 World Cup 2026 will be played between Pakistan and the Netherlands at 5.30 am GMT on 7th February 2026. Be sure to join us for all the live action as the quest for glory begins. Goodbye for now!
Keeping the target within sight - Despite facing a formidable Indian batting lineup, Namibia's bowling unit showed grit by consistently breaking partnerships and claiming key wickets. Riyan Parag and Ashutosh Sharma were standouts with the bat for India A. Max Heingo, Ruben Trumpelmann, and Gerhard Erasmus led the charge with two wickets each, while Bernard Scholtz and Willem Myburgh provided valuable support in the middle overs. Although they conceded a high total, the team's disciplined effort ensured the target remained manageable, leaving the door open for a competitive chase if their top order performs.
Clinical bowling seals resounding victory - The scorecard reflects a complete team effort from the India A bowlers, who dismantled the Namibian side for a paltry total to secure a resounding 130-run win. Ashok Sharma, Mayank Yadav, Vipraj Nigam, and Gurjapneet Singh were the chief architects of the collapse, picking up two wickets apiece with clinical precision. Ayush Badoni and Ravi Bishnoi also joined the party, claiming one wicket each. This clinical performance serves as a massive confidence booster for the players representing India A.
Namibian batting crumbles - Chasing a massive 198, Namibia’s innings never got off the starting line as they kept losing wickets in a jiffy. The gulf in class was evident as the batters struggled to cope with the searing pace and accurate lines of the Indian attack. Only Dylan Leicher and Jan Frylinck managed to provide a semblance of resistance by reaching double figures, but their efforts were lone sparks in a dismal batting card where no other player could breach the 10-run mark. Once the pace trio did the damage, the spinners stepped in to wrap things up, making light work of the tail to complete the demolition.
India A Crushes Namibia in a dominant display - India A have secured a commanding victory by 130 runs in this ICC T20 World Cup warm-up clash, delivering an outstanding bowling performance that left the opposition reeling. Defending a formidable total of 197, the Indian bowlers never allowed Namibia to settle, turning the chase into a one-sided affair from the opening over. The pace battery was simply too hot to handle, as the Indian quicks exploited the conditions with relentless aggression, dismantling the Namibian top order and reducing them to a shell-shocked 31 for 6 by the end of the Powerplay.
