The Group phase of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 is coming to a close, and the qualification battle has heated up in Group A. Namibia stunned everyone when they defeated Asian Champions Sri Lanka in the tournament opener. Their defeat against the Netherlands cracked the group wide open. Their last encounter against the United Arab Emirates on Thursday will be a must-win game for the Gerard Erasmus-led side.
Namibia has the best chance of qualifying as the runner-up from Group A, heading to the GMHBA Stadium in Geelong, but only if they manage to get the better of UAE. Against the Netherlands, Namibia didn’t even look like the shadow of the side that thumped the Lankans, a few days ago. Will Erasmus and his men replicate the overwhelming performance from their first match of the tournament? Or will they crumble under pressure? It will be a huge test of their character.

Meanwhile, the tournament is done and dusted for UAE. UAE were tipped as one of the favourites to qualify along with Sri Lanka for the Super 12 stage. However, UAE could not dish out top-drawer performances and were thumped in both their matches. CP Rizwan and his men will want to come back home with at least a win to their name and they could do a big favour for Sri Lanka and Netherlands if they edge out Namibia on Thursday.
