BA Blasting Namibia will take on King Price Kings at the United Cricket Club Ground in the 1st match of the Richelieu Franchise T20.
BA Blasting Namibia, led by Michau du Preez, are the defending champions and expectations of them are high entering the tournament. Last season, they got past the King Price Kings in a convincing manner. They also won the first season after beating M&M Sings Strikers.
They have Merwe Erasmus, the skipper of the national team, in their ranks. Left-arm fast bowler Ruben Trumpelmann was exceptional for Namibia in the T20 World Cup 2021. In one of the games, he rattled Scotland’s top-order with some early wickets.
The Price Kings, on the other hand, will be captained by Danie van Schoor. They have JP Kotze, who has played a significant amount of cricket for the Namibia cricket team. In 15 T20Is, he has notched 286 runs at an average of 20.
Pikky YaFrance and Bernard Scholtz played in the T20 World Cup and have experience of rubbing shoulders with the big boys of the game. Scholtz has been an effective left-arm spinner for them and he can pick wickets and keep the runs down in the middle overs.
