We are back for the run chase!
... RUN CHASE ...
Right then. Indian bowler's have done their job. Now the onus will be on their batters to chase down the target and bid farewell to their Head Coach, Ravi Shastri, on a winning note. Namibia have a good bowling unit, they will hope to make the chase a bit difficult? Who will come out on top? To find out, do join us for the chase on the other side.
Ravichandran Ashwin says that the surface had decent bounce and there is a strong cross-breeze, which helped the spinners today. Adds that along with the variations, pace is also very important to vary and the wicket is better than the last time they played here. Mentions that the dew does help batting second as the ball comes on a bit better and these are all external factors that one cannot control. Ends by saying that they will like to finish on a high and it's an honour playing in the Indian colours and hopes that he doesn't get to bat today.
The Indian spinners strangled the Namibian batting line-up. Ashwin and Jadeja were the pick of the bowlers, as both bagged 3 wickets each. Jasprit Bumrah picked up a brace. Rahul Chahar could not make the most of his opportunity, he remained wicketless, but he bowled brilliantly. Shami also could not get into the wicket's column. Overall, it was a team performance.
Namibia lacked partnerships in the middle! Baard and Michael Van Lingen fared really well in the first four overs. But once the latter was skittled out, it was a collapse for the Namibians. They kept losing wickets at regular intervals. Their batters could not build a solid stand in the middle which proved to be costly. In the end, the middle order and the tail-enders chipped in some runs to exceed the 130-run mark.
Namibia fought till the end and made sure to get a decent score on the scoreboard. India were top-notch with the ball. They dominated throughout the innings. Namibia will be a little upset but it was never easy to negotiate against a top bowling pack of India.
