Pakistan have been in superb form and are likely to continue in that same manner when they face Namibia in a Group 2 Super 12 stage match at the T20 World Cup 2021 on Tuesday, November 2. Having started off with a massive 10-wicket win over arch-rivals India, Babar Azam's side have gone from strength to strength, defeating New Zealand and then, a spirited Afghanistan side. On the brink of qualifying for the semifinals from Group 2, Pakistan would head into this clash as overwhelming favourites for winning this contest. Namibia meanwhile, crashed to a heavy 62-run loss to Afghanistan in their second match of the competition this year after opening their campaign with an impressive win over Scotland. And they would aim to give some tough times to the Pakistan side and hope to create an upset, although that seems highly unlikely at the moment. PAK vs AFG Stat Highlights, T20 World Cup 2021: Asif Ali’s Cameo Helps Pakistan Complete a Hat-Trick of Wins

Pakistan are playing well as a team as both their bowling and batting units have been extremely impressive. It would take some doing from the Namibians if they aim to unsettle the 2009 champions on their way to the semifinals.
