Namibia are showing to the cricketing world cup that they can perform against good oppositions as well, despite losing the 1st T20 against South Africa Emerging. They must win the 2nd match to stay in the series. Craig Williams will have to play a major role for Namibia.

South Africa Emerging men did a commendable job in the 1st T20 to go 1-0 up in the series. Jason Smith and Delano Potgieter’s late firepower won the game for South Africa Emerging with 8 balls to spare. They will look to carry the same momentum for the 2nd T20 as well to go 2-0 up in the series.

NAM vs SA-E Risky Captaincy Choices:

Jan Nicol Loftie-Eaton gave the finishing touch in the end for Namibia in the 1st T20, scoring 37* runs from 20 balls. He chipped in with a wicket as well. It is worth a risk to make him the captain of your Dream11 fantasy team.

Wandile Makwetu played reasonably well for his 20 runs in the 1st T20. He has been picked by only 1.38 % of users at the writing and be a differential captain for your fantasy teams.

Player you should avoid:

Ben Shikongo leaked runs at the early stages of the match and went for 10 an over in his 2 overs. You can avoid him while making your Dream11 fantasy teams.
