Namibia is set to face Scotland in a Group B match at the Kensington Oval on June 7, starting at 12:30 am IST.
The teams have had different fortunes in their opening games of the tournament. Namibia secured a dramatic super-over victory against Oman, while Scotland’s first match against England ended without a result due to persistent rain. Prior to the World Cup, Scotland’s warm-up game against Uganda was washed out, and they subsequently lost to Afghanistan by 55 runs in another warm-up match.
Namibia’s key player in the upcoming match is David Wiese. In the game against Oman, the fast-bowling all-rounder took three wickets and then led his team to victory in the super over by hitting a four and a six in the first two deliveries and successfully defending a target of 21 runs. For Scotland, captain Richie Berrington is the player to watch. He has an impressive batting average of 34.22 and a strike rate of 161.3 over his last 10 T20I innings.
Historically, Scotland and Namibia have faced each other three times in T20 matches, with Namibia winning all three encounters. Ahead of the next match of the T20 World Cup 2024, here is all you need to know.

Scotland have been unfortunate so far in the tournament because one of their warm up matches and their opening game, both were washed out due to rain. Namibia come into this game on the back of a win, so we predict them to win this game.
