Ravi Shastri, the Indian Head Coach is in for a chat. He says, his journey has been fantastic. Adds, he is satisfied with his services and says the players have performed really well in all formats. Mentions, high points across all formats they have achieved a lot of great things across the globe. Says, this might be the longest lead they hold against England in a Test series, as the final game will be played next year. Mentions, Rahul Dravid is a great addition, he will only take the side to the peak. Adds, some players will go onto play for 4-5 years, but Kohli has been exceptional and has brought the Test culture alive. He has been a crucial part of the squad. Adds, the players have been through a lot in the past 6 months, being consistently around the bubble life. But this time they could not turn the switch on and make it to the semi finals.

Gerhard Erasmus, the skipper of Namibia, says that it is a great opportunity to come up against a great side. Says that getting through the group stage was the goal and this World Cup has been a great set up for them. Tells that back at home, things are positive and everyone wished them well. Informs that Jan Frylinck is back for Karl Birkenstock.

The Indian skipper, Virat Kohli, says that they will bowl first again. Mentions that the toss has been a factor here and he's won a couple tosses lately and always looked to bowl first. Adds that it has been an honour for him, being a captain of this team but it's time for him to make way and he is really proud of the team. Mentions that it's now time for someone to step up and Rohit is there along with a couple of other senior players as well who need to take the team forward. Informs that there is one change to the side, Rahul Chahar comes in for Varun Chakravarthy.

Namibia (Playing XI) - Stephan Baard, Zane Green (WK), Craig Williams, Gerhard Erasmus (C), David Wiese, JJ Smit, Jan Frylinck (In for Karl Birkenstock), Michael Van Lingen, Nicol Loftie-Eaton, Ruben Trumpelmann, Bernard Scholtz.

India (Playing XI) - KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli (C), Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant (WK), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Rahul Chahar (In for Varun Chakravarthy), Mohammed Shami, Ravichandran Ashwin, Jasprit Bumrah.

TOSS - Both the skippers stride out to the middle for an all-important toss. The coin goes up and lands in favour of India. They have opted BOWL first.

PITCH REPORT - Shane Watson says that it's a beautiful wicket, nice and dry and compact. Adds that there's not going to be much difference batting first or second, apart from a little bit of dew. Ends by saying that it is a great wicket for batting.

For one last time, Virat Kohli will lead team India in T20I's. A rather emotional season for him, he would have not dreamt of ending his stint like this. Along with him, Ravi Shastri, India's head coach will end his tenure as well. India will hope to end a downhearted season on a positive note against a team that are still finding ways to fight the heavyweights. Stay tuned for the toss and other updates.

Hello and a warm welcome to the 42nd and the final game of the group stages in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup where India will go up against Namibia. A disappointing season for India will come to an end as they have failed to qualify for the semi finals. Despite winning their last two matches with big margins, India had to rely on Afghanistan to do some favour but expectations were too high on them. This is also the first time that India have failed to qualify for the semi-finals of an ICC tournament under Virat Kohli's captaincy. Namibia though with just a solitary win failed to compete with the big boys.
