Pakistan Vs Namibia, Pakistan won the toss and chose to bat first. The start had spark, then a stumble. At the SSC ground in Colombo, the Pakistan Power play score vs Namibia moved to 47/1 after six overs. The tempo felt brisk, purposeful, with early boundaries setting the tone before a setback trimmed the momentum. Sahibzada Farhan pierced gaps, found the rope five times, and stayed unbeaten on 26 off 20. Then came the twist.
Saim Ayub never quite settled. He nudged a couple through cover, showed intent, but on 14 he chased width and nicked behind. Jack Brassell struck. You could see the disappointment written on his face. That one moment shifted the mood slightly. Few saw that dismissal coming so soon.
Namibia’s bowlers avoided panic. JJ Smit kept it neat. Gerhard Erasmus mixed his pace cleverly. Ruben Trumpelmann went for runs but did not lose control.
Still, the T20 World Cup live score heavily leans Pakistan’s way. With a 90 percent win probability and wickets in hand, the platform is set.
Now the question lingers. Can Pakistan turn this steady base into a commanding total?
