Preview

The second ODI of the Ireland tour of Namibia 2026 is set to be played between the two teams on Saturday, October 24, at the Namibia Cricket Ground in Windhoek. Ireland took a 1-0 lead in the five-match series after securing a 55-run victory in the opening match and will look to build on that momentum.

Namibia will aim to bounce back after falling short in the first ODI. Despite bowling out Ireland for 229/9 in their 50 overs, the hosts were dismissed for 174 in 37.5 overs. They will need a stronger batting performance in the second encounter to level the series and make the most of home conditions.

Ireland, meanwhile, will be encouraged by their winning start after suffering a 4-0 series defeat against Afghanistan in their previous ODI assignment. The visitors will look to maintain their improved performance and take a 2-0 lead, while Namibia will be eager to respond and keep the five-match series competitive.

Picked up three wickets for 29 runs in nine overs against Namibia. His economical spell and ability to take wickets make him a strong vice-captaincy option.

7

George Dockrell IRE | ALL

Contributed with the ball, claiming two wickets for 22 runs in four overs. Despite scoring a duck with the bat, his bowling performance makes him a useful option.

8

Zane Green NAM | WK

Namibia's wicketkeeper-batter scored four runs in the first ODI. He remains a potential pick for his dual role, though a stronger batting performance would improve his value.

6

Jai Moondra IRE | ALL

Claimed two wickets for 27 runs in eight overs, providing an economical spell for Ireland. He could be a useful budget selection after his promising performance.

8.5

Ruben Trumpelmann NAM | BOWL
