Preview

In the 18th T20 match of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026, India (IND) is set to face Namibia (NAM). India made an impressive start to the tournament, securing a 29-run victory over the USA in their previous match. Suryakumar Yadav was the standout performer, delivering a superb innings of 84 runs off 49 balls. In the bowling department, Mohammad Siraj led the attack effectively, claiming three wickets. However, India experienced a brief batting collapse during the match, an area they will look to address and improve upon in the upcoming fixtures. 

On the other hand, Namibia did not have a good start to the T20 World Cup 2026 as they lost their last match against the Netherlands by 7 wickets. Despite the loss, Jan Nicol Loftie-Eaton and Jan Frylinck made valuable contributions with the bat, scoring 42 and 30 runs, respectively. With the ball, Bernard Scholtz, Ruben Trumpelmann, and Loftie-Eaton picked up one wicket each.
