Continental rivals Namibia and South Africa will script history when they meet in a one-off T20I match for the very first time. Both the teams have never played against each other in a bilateral series and Saturday, October 11 will mark the first time of their meeting.
Namibia, led by Gerhard Erasmus, will enter this fixture with full confidence after a terrific outing in the T20 World Cup Africa Regional Final 2025 where they secured qualification for the ICC T20 World Cup next year.
The Namibians registered victories against the likes of Kenya, Nigeria and Malawi in the group stages and Tanzania in the semi-final. However, they crashed out against Zimbabwe by 7 wickets in the finale but that won't affect them much as a spot in the 20-team T20 World Cup in India and Sri Lanka has already been booked.
As for South Africa, the Proteas are coming on the back of a 2-1 defeat and 1-1 draw in T20I series' against Australia and England over the last two months. Even though, the 2025 World Test Champions have named a young squad, they are still expected to come out victorious.
