The series can be considered a good preparation for the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Nicol Loftie-Eaton Scores Fastest Century in T20Is, Achieves Feat During Nepal vs Namibia T20 Tri-Series 2024 Match.

In the last match of the tournament, there was no definite winner as it was interrupted by rain. As a result, Namibia and the Netherlands shared a point each. This put Namibia on three points and in third place in the points table. This sets up a final match between host Nepal and table-toppers Netherlands.

Nepal turned things in their favour with back-to-back wins in their last two fixtures, while Namibia failed to capitalise on their early win over Nepal. However, Namibia remained the high-scoring side of the tournament, scoring above the 170-run barrier in every match. On the other hand, the Netherlands has been a consistent team in the tournament, both with bat and ball.  Fan Watches Nepal vs Namibia ODI Cricket Match by Climbing on Tree Branch, Videos Go Viral!
