T20is erasmus

T20Is Erasmus: Namibia captain Gerhard Erasmus has been named ICC Men's Associate Cricketer of the Year award for 2024, making it the second time of him winning the coveted honour.

Erasmus, 29, was a constant threat with his steady off-breaks while leading Namibia in 2024. He started the year with a five-wicket haul against Nepal in Kirtipur, which set the base for him taking 18 wickets each in both ODIs and T20Is. In ODIs, Erasmus scored 364 runs at an average of 33.09, while in T20Is Erasmus amassed 363 runs at an average of 33.

His best performance of the year came during the 2024 Men’s T20 World Cup, scoring 52 against Scotland and lighting up the super over in his team’s solitary win against Oman. Though Namibia lost to Scotland by five wickets in a crunch Group B fixture, Erasmus made a superb 31-ball 52 to top score in in their total of 155/9.
