Trumpelmann, Green Guide Namibia To Historic Win Over South Africa
T20 World Cup: Namibia pulled off a thrilling four-wicket win over South Africa in the one-off T20I on Saturday, sealing victory off the final delivery of the match played in Windhoek on Saturday. The result marked South Africa’s second T20I loss to an Associate nation, after their defeat to the Netherlands at the 2022 T20 World Cup.
Chasing 135 for victory, Namibia relied on Zane Green’s unbeaten 30 off 23 balls and Ruben Trumpelmann’s all-round brilliance (3-28 and 8-ball 11 not out). With 11 runs required off the final over, Green swung the momentum with a six off the first ball from Andile Simelane. The pacer recovered to bowl four tight deliveries, but a low full toss off the last ball was whipped away by Green to seal the win.
Earlier, South Africa opted to bat and lost Quinton de Kock and Reeza Hendricks cheaply. On a tricky surface, Lhua-dre Pretorius and Rubin Hermann added 30 runs before Trumpelmann struck again, aided by a fine catch at deep square leg. Regular wickets pegged South Africa back, reducing them to 68 for 5 in the 11th over.
