Namibia are favorites to win
Game 3 in Pool A of the 2022 T20 World Cup brings Namibia together with Netherlands on Tuesday afternoon in Geelong. Both sides won their opening matches on Sunday. Namibia pulled off a shock to beat Sri Lanka with Netherlands beating UAE. Read on as we preview this game. This first round match gets underway at Kardinia Park at 15:00 local time.
Namibia qualified for the Super 12 Stage last year and look very well placed to do so again after seeing off Sri Lanka on Sunday. They will back themselves to beat all teams in this Pool.
Netherlands were nervous at times but had just about enough quality to beat UAE in their opening match. However, Namibia will be a much tougher proposition in this match.
TV channels: This match will be shown live on Sky Sports Cricket, Star Network, Fox Sports, ESPN and PTV.
Live Streaming: Fans can stream the match on Sky Go and Disney+ Hotstar
Although Namibia won by batting first and Netherlands won by fielding first, we predict that both skippers would prefer to bowl first in this match.
It was the quicker bowlers who had the most joy on this pitch on Sunday and we expect them to also get some assistance in this match. A par score will be around 155.
Partly cloudy with the temperature as high as 20 degrees in the first half of this match. There is no chance of any rain delays.

After beating the 2022 Asia Cup Champions Sri Lanka on Sunday, the Namibian squad will be full of confidence ahead of this match. With no injuries reported from Sunday’s game, we expect to see the same XI selected against Netherlands.
Namibia are targeting their fourth successive IT20 victory in this match.

Michael van Lingen, Divan la Cock, Jan Nicol Loftie-Eaton. Stephan Baard, Gerhard Erasmus (c), Jan Frylinck, David Wiese, JJ Smit, Zane Green (wk), Bernard Scholtz, Ben Shikongo
Although they got off to a winning start against UAE in T20 World Cup 2022, Netherlands only got over the line with three wickets and one ball remaining so there is plenty of room for improvement. We anticipate the same XI will be picked for this clash against Namibia.
Netherlands ended a three match losing streak with their win over UAE on Sunday.
Vikramjit Singh, Max O’Dowd, Bas de Leede, Colin Ackermann, Tom Cooper, Scott Edwards (c) (wk), Roelof van der Merwe, Tim Pringle, Logan van Beek, Fred Klaassen, Paul van Meekeren
The teams have gone head to head in two IT20s with both sides winning one game each. Namibia won the last meeting, during the 2021 T20 World Cup in Abu Dhabi.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Overall | 2 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 |
| Last 5 | 2 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 |
A win for either team will go a long way to confirming their place in the Super 12 Stage and the bookies are backing Namibia to get their second victory of the tournament.

There are some very experienced players on both sides who could hold the key to producing the best performance for their team. We expect both teams to look to attack from the start when batting.
We recommend Stephan Baard, Divan La Cock and Gerhard Erasmus with the bat for Namibia. Erasmus has a top score of 100 not out in IT20s.
Max O’Dowd, Bas de Leede and Colin Ackermann are our batting picks for Netherlands. Ackermann has a top international score of 81 and has a very strong T20 Blast record.
Jan Frylinck, Bernard Scholtz and David Wiese are our bowling tips for Namibia. Scholtz took 2-18 on this wicket on Sunday.
We are backing Fred Klaassen, Bas de Leede and Logan van Beek with the ball for Netherlands. van Beek has format best figures of 4-27.
With both teams getting off to winning starts on Sunday, we expect Namibia and Netherlands to take the field with plenty of confidence. Netherlands certainly have the players to cause Namibia problems but we think Namibia have the most talent. We are backing Namibia to get their second victory of the tournament.
