Australia Faces Namibia In Crucial T20 World Cup 2024 Clash: Match Preview And Fantasy Tips

In match 24 of the T20 World Cup 2024, pre-tournament favourites and 2021 champions Australia will face Namibia at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in North Sound, Antigua & Barbuda on Tuesday (June 11).

Mitchell Marsh-led Australia, who are just a win away from securing a Super 8 spot, come into the match following a convincing win over defending champions and Ashes rivals England. Namibia, on the other hand, is fresh from a defeat to Scotland.

Australia fired in unison to become the first team in this edition of the tournament to score 200-plus runs in a one-sided 36-run win over arch-rivals England in their last group league match. It was their second win from as many matches, having started off with a 39-run triumph over Oman.

Namibia, who won a super over eliminator against Oman in the tournament opener, failed to defend a total of 155 in their most recent outing in the T20 World Cup 2024 against Scotland. An upset win over Australia will give Namibia slim hopes of Super 8 qualification.
