New Zealand vs Pakistan TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. NAM vs CAN Match Prediction & Analysis This has been a memorable T20I series, but particularly for Canada, it has been for all the wrong reasons. Coming into the five game series in the better form in this format, they have suffered two no results due to persistent rain but then lost the other two games by three wickets on Wednesday and ten wickets (DLS) on Saturday. So Namibia have secured the series, coming into this game with an unassailable 2-0 lead, but they have only bowled 28 overs across the series! JJ Smit has been their standout performer and he will be in pole position to secure the Player of the Series award ahead of this fifth and final T20I. TEAMS PREVIEW Namibia Preview Even the most optimistic Namibian cricket fan would not have thought it possible for their side to be arriving in Windhoek for the final game of the series with the chance of taking the series 3-0! But that is exactly what the hosts can achieve if they secure another win over Canada, a team who they restricted to 42/7 in Saturday’s 13 over per side game. JJ Smit was the Player of the Match on Saturday after returning incredible figures of 4/9 from four overs and he could still end the series with three Player of the Match awards if he maintains his levels in this clash. The opening batting pair of JP Kotze and Nikolaas Davin were all that were required in the fourth T20I but Namibia do have plenty of batting options throughout their line-up. Canada Preview This series was meant to show the progress of Canadian cricket and up against a Namibian team in transition it looked like the perfect five game series for the north Americans. However, a mixture of rain and poor performance mean that Canada have not reached the levels many expected of them but this game gives them the opportunity to depart Africa with their head’s held high. In order to do that, Canada need better returns from their opening pair of Aaron Johnson and Ajayveer Hundal who were able to produce zero runs between them on Saturday! The bowling unit were unable to pick up a wicket in that game either but Kaleem Sana and Dilon Heyliger should have the talent to make inroads in this final fixture. Weather Conditions Similar to the other four games in the series, the weather conditions are forecast to be wet and cloudy across Sunday. It could well be that we have another reduced overs game. NAM vs CAN Pitch Report This venue is never the easiest place to bat but the overhead conditions and moisture in the wicket has made it even more bowler friendly in this series. A par total is likely to be 125-130 in this fixture. Toss: To Bowl The two completed games in this series have been won by the team chasing so we predict that both captains will go out for the toss on Sunday with the intention of bowling first.

Namibia vs Canada ​ TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. NAM vs CAN Match Prediction & Analysis After Tuesday’s game was abandoned without a ball bowled, there were fears of rain playing havoc with the schedule once again on Wednesday but they proved unfounded as Namibia and Canada put on one of the all-time great T20Is, albeit in a 15-over aside match. No pressure on both sides ahead of this game then but with the series nicely poised as Namibia lead 1-0 with three to play, Friday’s third T20I could well be a classic contest. Namibia got over the line with three wickets remaining after scampering two balls from the final ball of Wednesday’s fixture to secure the win. But it looked as though Canada would end up as winners two balls earlier when the hosts were on 138/7 in pursuit of 146. TEAMS PREVIEW Namibia Preview Although Namibia won Wednesday’s second T20I, they will still be looking to improve as they target a 2-0 lead in the series going into the weekend. The victory was setup by their new-ball bowlers, JJ Smit and Ruben Trumpelmann who between them took seven of the eight Canada wicket on Wednesday and we expect the pair to be key in this contest again. The spin of captain Gerhard Erasmus is always threatening at international level and he will get some turn and bounce from this pitch in Windhoek once again. T20I matches can be won by useful contributions from multiple batters and that was the case in the second game of the series. The key to Namibia’s victory were the attacking approaches of Nikolaas Davin, Jan Nicol Loftie-Eaton and JJ Smit so we predict they will look to replicate that on Friday. Canada Preview There is every chance that Canada will arrive at the ground on Friday still scratching their heads over how they were able to let victory turn into defeat in Wednesday’s match. The team produced some strong batting and bowling displays but ultimately they were unable to get over the line. As a result, we predict the team management will do a lot of work on focusing on the big moments in this match. There is plenty of talent with bat and ball in the Canada squad, they just need to manage the important times better. Weather Conditions The forecast has certainly been consistent in Windhoek so far this week and it looks like being another overcast afternoon with a threat of rain on Friday. But just as we saw on Wednesday, there should be enough breaks in the cloud to allow for a game of some sort! NAM vs CAN Pitch Report This pitch is one which always keeps the bowlers interested and with the conditions also assisting the fielding sides, we can expect batters to be forced to be slightly more attacking than they normally might opt for. A par score is likely to be no higher than 170-180. Toss: To Bowl Namibia showed that batting second was the route to victory on Wednesday and they were able to time their chase to perfection. For that reason, we predict that both teams will select to bowl first if they win the toss.

πŒπ€π“π‚π‡ :​ Namibia vs Canada𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : March 19, Wednesdayπ“πˆπŒπ„ : 17:30 PM IST​​​ 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Namibia Cricket Ground, Windhoek, Namibia, Namibia π“πŽπ”π‘ππ€πŒπ„ππ“ : 2nd T20, 2025 After rain washed out Tuesday’s opener, both Namibia and Canada will be hoping for drier conditions on Wednesday! Namibia vs Canada TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. NAM vs CAN Match Prediction & Analysis It was a very disappointing scene for players, fans and administrators alike as the much-anticipated five-match T20I series between Namibia and Canada began with a washout in Windhoek on Tuesday. But as with any setback, the best opportunity for all is to move onto the next opportunity and both sets of players will be hoping for a full game of cricket on Wednesday at the same venue. Fortunately for all, although there is a hint of poor weather on the radar, the forecast is much more positive than what was predicted on Tuesday and the locals are sure that a full game will be able to take place. That said, the conditions look likely to suit the bowlers and there is likely to be plenty of life in the wicket following the downpours on Tuesday. Therefore, it could be a tricky second T20I for the batters on both sides! EAMS PREVIEW Namibia Preview On a pitch which is likely to provide much more assistance to the bowlers than the batters, Namibia will be looking to to the likes of Bernard Scholtz, Jan Frylinck, Gerhard Erasmus and Jan Balt to do the damage to Canada’s players in this game. Much has been written about Namibia’s struggles since the 2024 T20 World Cup and this match should provide a useful yardstick to see how they shape up against a Canada team who are on the rise. Gerhard Erasmus’ side do have the benefit of home advantage and they will be looking to use that in this match. In a game where the bowlers are expected to be on top, we predict that Namibia’s batters will take on an aggressive approach. That will likely be embodied by keeper-batter JP Kotze and Jan Frylinck at the top of the order with Erasmus to play an anchor role if early wickets fall. The openers will be given a licence to free their arms and will target boundaries from the first ball. Canada Preview No team likes to see a game abandoned without a ball bowled and Canada will certainly have been disappointed to see the opening game of this series washed out after they had performed so well in the ODI fixtures earlier in the month. Any momentum which may have been carried through from the Cricket World Cup League 2 matches may have disappeared by the time this game gets underway and there is likely to be an urgency from the tourists who will be keen to take an early lead in the series. Even in conditions which don’t suit them, Canada have an exceptionally gifted bowling attack and judging by the overcast skies in the forecast, they could well have one of their great days in this game. We expect the whole bowling unit to be a threat but Akhil Kumar and Parveen Kumar to be the lead bowlers. With the bat, captain Nicholas Kirton is often the most technical but there are also other attacking options in Dilpreet Bajwa at the top of the order and keeper-batter Shreyas Movva. Weather Conditions The weather forecast is once again not perfect for Windhoek but the chance of rain is a lot smaller than on Tuesday. Nevertheless, we are expecting overcast skies and humid conditions from start to finish. NAM vs CAN Pitch Report This venue is one where batting is not always the easiest and the moisture from Tuesday’s rain coupled with the conditions on Wednesday are likely to make it even more bowler friendly. It could well be that a total of 145-150 is sufficient to win a low-scoring contest. Toss: To Bowl With the conditions predicted to favour the bowlers, we are expecting both captains to go out for the toss with the intention of bowling first should they call correctly.

πŒπ€π“π‚π‡ :​ Namibia vs Canada𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : March 18, Mondayπ“πˆπŒπ„ : 17:30 PM IST​​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Namibia Cricket Ground, Windhoek, Namibia, Namibia π“πŽπ”π‘ππ€πŒπ„ππ“ : 1st T20, 2025 After going head to head in two ODIs earlier this month, Namibia and Canada begin a five-match T20I series in Windhoek! Namibia vs Canada TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. NAM vs CAN Match Prediction & Analysis The Namibia Cricket Ground in Windhoek has the honour of hosting the first ever T20I between Namibia and Canada as they embark on a five-game T20I series which begins on Tuesday. For Namibia, this will be their first game in the format since last October when they lost twice to both UAE and USA during the Namibia T20 Tri-Series which came four months after they finished in fourth place in Group B at the T20 World Cup. As in other formats, Namibia have struggled to adjust to life post-David Wiese who had been their star performer with both bat and ball across the last few years. Canada were last in T20I action in October during the Canada T20 Tri-Series and produced some strong cricket in games against Nepal and Oman.  TEAMS PREVIEW Namibia Preview With the David Wiese era now way behind Namibia, Gerhard Erasmus’ side have looked to the likes of himself, Jan Fryloinck and Bernard Scholtz to provide the experience and leadership to the team. As yet, these players and others like Zane Green and JJ Smit have been unable to step up to keep Namibia competitive at international cricket! Ahead of this match, we expect to see keeper-batter JP Kotze open up alongside Jan Frylinck with Shaun Fouche likely to be used as a ‘finisher’ and have a floating batting number in the line-up. With the ball, Scholtz and Erasmus were the only bowlers to pick up wickets in Namibia’s last T20I but we expect Jan Balt alongside the pace of Jack Brassell to also be threatening. Canada Preview This will be a very interesting opening game of the series for Canada who come into this match ranked in 21st place but on an upward trajectory on their cricketing journey! After picking up plenty of new fans and admirers during the T20 World Cup, Canada have been playing a brand of positive and exciting cricket for a while and we expect that to continue in Namibia during this game. With the bat, Canada have plenty of depth to their batting with Nicholas Kirton likely to come in at number six but more than capable of producing a long innings if required. With the ball, Canada have a reputation for being extremely disciplined. Akhil Kumar, Parveen Kumar along with Harsh Thaker are very consistent wicket-takers at this level. Weather Conditions According to the weather forecast, there will be plenty of cloud cover before, during and after the conclusion of this game. There could also be some rain interruptions. NAM vs CAN Pitch Report With the overhead conditions, there could be plenty of assistance for the quicker bowlers in this match. Whichever team bats first will be looking to post around 155-160 to be competitive. Toss: To Bowl This ground in Windhoek often loses a bit of pace across a full day of cricket but across 40 overs of a T20I there should not be a huge difference. As a result, we predict that both captains will want to bowl first.
