Namibia Preview 

Namibia have tried hard in both games, but they have not matched the batting strengths of Zimbabwe. Then, their bowling is another issue, and they have leaked runs without taking many wickets. They have to work on both areas of the match.

• Batting: The batting has clicked well, as there have been contributions from their batters. But the problem is that they have yet to play a big inning.
• Bowling: The bowling has been off-color for Namibia. They have not taken wickets with the new ball, and both of Zimbabwe’s openers have attacked them. The visitors need to work on their new ball.
