Namibia was never in the game, particularly after losing half their side for 21 runs. Australia captain Mitchell Marsh had won the toss and without any hesitation opted to bowl first against Namibia in their Group B fixture on Wednesday.

Namibia, however, have had a mixed bag at the tournament so far. In their opening fixture, Namibia came out on top against Oman in Super Over but facing Scotland in their second match, the Gerald Erasmus-led side lost by five wickets.
