Canada’s T20 match against Namibia was canceled again due to bad weather, repeating a previous cancellation this week. Namibia won a shortened match earlier in the series. The teams plan to retry playing on the weekend, with Namibia ranked 15th and Canada 21st in the ICC T20 standings.
The T20 cricket match between Canada and Namibia faced another cancellation due to inclement weather. This marks the second instance this week where no play occurred, following the abandonment of Tuesday’s match. Earlier on Wednesday, Namibia achieved a victory against Canada in a weather-shortened match, winning by three wickets.
In the Wednesday matchup, Namibia won the toss and chose to field first. Canada managed to score 145 runs for the loss of eight wickets in their allotted 15 overs, with 18-year-old Yuvraj Samra contributing significantly with 37 runs. Namibia achieved their target of 146 runs with Zane Green scoring the crucial last runs off Canadian bowler Kaleem Sana in the final ball of their innings.
Looking to reschedule, the teams will attempt to play again on Saturday and Sunday in Windhoek, the capital of Namibia. In T20 rankings by the ICC, Namibia holds the 15th spot while Canada is positioned at 21st. Weather interruptions have also affected Canada’s recent matches during the ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 tri-series, with their games against the Netherlands called off due to similar conditions.
Currently, Canada is in third place in the World League standings with a record of 9 wins and 5 losses alongside two no-results from their matches.
In summary, the cricket match between Canada and Namibia was again canceled due to bad weather, matching a previous cancellation earlier this week. Namibia previously secured a win in a shortened game, demonstrating strong performance despite the weather. The teams are rescheduled to play yet again, hoping to avoid further weather-related disruptions.
