India A Vs Namibia Live Score, ICC T20 World Cup Warm-Up: Toss Update

India A have won the toss and elected to bat first against Namibia. Remember that it is a just a warm-up match and not an official one, hence both teams can use their entire squad for both batting and bowling throughout. However, only 11 batters can bat in an innings, which can be anyone from the 15-member squad, and bowling teams can use as many options as they have in the entire squad.
