The T20 match between Canada and Namibia was canceled again due to bad weather, marking the second time within a week. Following one completed match, Namibia leads the series. Scheduled games will continue as weather permits this weekend.
The T20 cricket match between Canada and Namibia was once again abandoned due to inclement weather, marking the second cancellation within a week. The series opener on Tuesday was similarly affected, while Namibia secured a win on Wednesday in a weather-shortened game. They achieved a victory by three wickets after Canada scored 145 runs for eight in 15 overs, led by Yuvraj Samra’s 37 runs.
In a nail-biting finish on Wednesday, Zane Green scored the match-winning runs, ending Namibia’s innings at 146 for seven. Namibia ranked 15th in T20 cricket, according to the International Cricket Council (ICC), while Canada holds the 21st position. Both teams are scheduled to compete again on Saturday and Sunday in Windhoek, Namibia.
Weather disruptions have plagued the recent ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 tri-series as well. Canada’s encounters against the 14th-ranked Netherlands were also called off due to poor weather conditions. Currently, Canada stands third in the World League table, holding a record of 9 wins and 5 losses, with two matches resulting in no decisions.
In summary, the ongoing T20 series between Canada and Namibia faces significant challenges due to adverse weather conditions, resulting in multiple match cancellations. Namibia, having won the one completed match, aims to capitalize on their home advantage in the upcoming fixtures. With both teams eager to perform, the situation remains fluid as they seek to reschedule the matches amidst unpredictable weather.
