Namibia Under 19 Vs Nepal Under 19 Match ICC under 19 world cup 2016 -
Playing in Fatullah, Bangladesh on Wednesday, England scored 286 for nine wickets off 48 overs and then dismissed Namibia for a paltry 83 to complete a one-sided victory.Namibia won the toss and elected to bowl first, but they had little luck as England’s top order piled on the runs.
Warren van Wyk dismissed Dan Lawrence for 18, but Tom Moores and Jack Burnham put England in charge with a massive 170-run partnership for the second wicket.Moores was the first to go, bowled by Fritz Coetzee for 85, but Burnham went on to score his century before being dismissed by Coetzee for 109, which came off 123 balls and included 10 fours and three sixes.There were further solid contributions from Sam Curran (22) and Brad Taylor (23) as England reached a formidable total of 286 for nine wickets off 48 overs.Fritz Coetzee was once again Namibia’s best bowler with three wickets for 72 runs off 10 overs, while new cap Burton Jacobs took two for 58 off 10 overs.Namibia’s reply got off to a poor start as Niko Davin (1) and SJ Loftie-Eaton (6) both went cheaply.Zane Green and Lohan Louwrens tried to repair the damage, but England struck with three wickets for only two runs to take control of the match.George Garton dismissed Green (13) and Eben van Wyk (0) within three balls and when Brad Taylor dismissed Jurgens Linde for a duck, Namibia had crashed to 32 for five wickets.Lohan Louwrens, who scored 24 and Chrischen Olivier who scored 10, were the only other batsmen to reach double figures before the whole team was skittled out for 83 off 25,2 overs.Mason Crane, who took three wickets for three runs, was England’s best bowler, while George Garton took 2/18 and Dan Lawrence 2/7.Namibia will now play Nepal in the seventh place play-off match in Fatullah, Bangladesh on Thursday.
