Oman will lock horns with Namibia in the final game of the five-match T20I series on Sunday (April 7) at Al Amerat Cricket Academy Ground, Oman.
In the 4th T20I, JP Kotze was terrific to provide a blistering start for the Namibian team. Malan Kruger (3) and Gerhard Erasmus (5) could not be potent enough with their performances.
However, David Wiese supported Kotze well, before the latter was dismissed on a well-compiled 78 off 51. Then, Wiese shifted gears and went on to score 51 off 32, as the visitors posted a series-high total of 164. Samay Shrivastava was the pick of the bowlers for Oman with two scalps.
In reply, the hosts had a 37-run opening stand, with Naseem Khushi (34) and Jatinder Singh (14). Afterwards, skipper Aqib Ilyas (24) and Mohammad Nadeem (30) were the key contributors as Oman could only score 140 in their designated 20 overs.
With the series tied at 2-2, it will be interesting to see which one of them wins this series.
