Namibia bagged a win in their first game against Oman while Scotland’s game against England was abandoned due to the rain.

Namibia captain Gerhard Erasmus said they are looking go with the same set-up of win while batting first.

“It’s going to be slow conditions all round, we have the right set-up to win the game batting first. The formula changes a little, gives us the freedom to play rather than just chase.

“We want to sharpen up from Oman, sluggish in the second half of the game. A great rivalry in the Associate world, we’ve been lucky to be on the winning side in the T20 format,” he added.
