Both the teams walk out to the middle, for their respective national anthems. It will be Namibia's anthem first, followed by the one of Pakistan. Now, we are done with all the pre-match proceedings. The Namibia players are out in the middle. Followed by Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan who come out to bat for Pakistan. But before the ball is bowled, Namibian players show their support by raising the right hand, while Pakistan players have their hand placed on their chest for the Black Lives Matter movement. Ruben Trumpelmann to start with the ball.

The Namibian skipper, Gerhard Erasmus, is in for a chat. He says, they would've tried to bowl first. The dew factor coming in later as the game progresses should help them. Mentions, it a real challenge for the side and the guys will be up for it. Adds that, they have two changes to the side. The two spinners Pikky Ya France and Bernard Scholtz go out. Ben Shikongo and Stephan Baard make their way into the side.

Babar Azam, the Pakistan skipper, says that they will bat first. Mentions that they will try to test their batters and put pressure on them. Adds that the pitch looks good for batting and they will look to put a good score. Informs that they are unchanged.

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

Pakistan (Unchanged playing XI) - Babar Azam (C), Mohammad Rizwan (WK), Fakhar Zaman, Mohammad Hafeez, Shoaib Malik, Asif Ali, Shadab Khan, Imad Wasim, Hasan Ali, Haris Rauf, Shaheen Afridi.

TOSS - Both the skippers, Gerhard Erasmus and Babar Azam, stride out to the middle for an all-important toss. The coin goes up and lands in favour of Pakistan. They have opted to BAT first.

Namibia, on the other hand, started off with a win against Scotland. But they got the real taste of the bigger stage when they were troubled by Afghanistan and could not get over the line. But they did put a good fight. But this time, they have a bigger task in front of them. It is quite a task to put Pakistan in a precarious position it will take a lot for Namibia to shake this invincible Pakistan side. The batters should focus on stitching partnerships in the middle and the bowlers should restrict giving away too many extras. How will the players fare against the tougher opponents? We shall find out soon, as the toss is not far away.

Pakistan have shown all-round performance in this campaign. They look to be like a complete team. Their top-order, middle-order and the bowlers have all stepped up whenever the team required them. Rauf and Afridi have bowled with fire throughout the campaign. Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan seem to be on a different pitch whenever they come out with their blade. While, the finisher Asif Ali has shown class whenever the burden was on his shoulders. In the last game, Malik could no support him till the end, but Ali made sure to go gun blazing to get his side over the line. Pakistan have made it three wins on the trot and will look to extend their winning streak in this campaign.

Hello and welcome to all! It is time for game number 31 in the T20 World Cup, 2021. In this game, Pakistan will be locking horns against Namibia. Pakistan are looking like a dangerous side in this campaign. Namibia, on the other hand, have been able to get a win of their two outings and are placed fourth on the points table, while India are a spot below them. Can Namibia pull a rabbit out of the hat and inch closer to the table-toppers?
