Afghanistan have been tipped by many as one of the dark horses in the competition and the Mohammad Nabi side have justified that tag with their performances so far. Afghanistan dominated Scotland in their opening encounter before losing against Pakistan, where they took the former champions to their limits.

Meanwhile, Namibia in their first-ever World Cup appearance has displayed heart and have played some brilliant cricket. The associate nation defeated Scotland in their opening match as well and will now be aiming to build on that win against Afghanistan. However, it will not be an easy task for Gerhard Erasmus’ men.

Not many expect these two teams to advance from the group but a win in this fixture will put either of them as the clear holders of the second spot in Group 2. Both sides will look to take one game at a time and their attention will now be focused on this game and taking maximum points from it.
