All-rounder Gerhard Erasmus will lead Namibia’s charge at the T20 global showpiece. This will be the African nation’s fourth consecutive appearance at the T20 World Cup.
Namibia qualified for the T20 World Cup after reaching the final of the Africa Region Qualifier tournament, where it lost to Zimbabwe in the final. Namibia won all three of its group-stage matches before beating Tanzania in the semifinal.
In October last year, Namibia also stunned South Africa in a one-off T20I in Windhoek.
Namibia is placed in Group A of the T20 World Cup competition, alongside India, Pakistan, the Netherlands and the USA.
