That's a wrap, folks! Another day in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, 2026 is done, and we saw three pretty one-sided games today. The matches keep coming thick and fast, though, as there's another triple-header lined up on Friday, 13 February. Things will kick off with a clash between Australia and Zimbabwe in Colombo. That game will begin at 5.30 am GMT, but you can join us a lot sooner for the build-up as well. ADIOS! TAKE CARE!
The Indian captain - Suryakumar Yadav says it was a pretty good game for everyone and acknowledges that it was not an easy wicket to bat on. Believes the way Ishan Kishan and Sanju Samson started made it appear far simpler than it actually was. Further says that the ball was stopping a bit on the surface. He is quick to add that he does not want to take any credit away from the Namibian bowlers, saying he was very impressed with their effort. After the first six or seven overs, he admits it looked like India would cross 230 or 240, but Namibia pulled things back well. He highlights the big plus of Jasprit Bumrah getting through his four overs, and also praises the way Axar Patel and Varun Chakaravarthy bowl in partnership, making it difficult for the opposition batters. He says it is a big boost for the team to see Hardik Pandya delivering with both bat and ball. While acknowledging that the campaign started a little scratchy, he believes the team is now on the road.
The captain of Namibia - Gerhard Erasmus says that with the Powerplay they had, they felt like they were in with a chance but Varun Chakaravarthy broke the back of the run chase. Adds that the bowlers came back well and cites the example of JJ Smit and they always look to up their game. Mentions that they still have a lot left in the tank and feels they haven't played their best cricket and will look to bounce back in the next game.
Let's now hear from the two captains...
Player of the Match - Hardik Pandya is given the award for his all-round effort of 52 off 28 balls and figures of 4-0-21-2. Pandya says he is just enjoying the sport and that the team had a good couple of months to prepare. He adds that everything is going well. Mentions that he has always taken pride in his batting, and when things come off, it adds more sugar to the cake. Pandya shares that his body has been feeling fantastic, crediting the hard work he puts in, something he truly cherishes. Playing for the country, he reiterates, remains the No. 1 priority. Hardik also reveals that he undergoes an army-like camp a month before a major tournament to get himself physically and mentally ready. Speaking about the bowling unit, he highlights that the side has plenty of options with both pace and spin covered. On the pitches in the tournament, he replies that the last two pitches have not been the most batting-friendly, with the wicket holding up a bit today. Cheekily adds that he would prefer slightly flatter wickets.
Namibia are on the brink - The Eagles are all but out of the tournament as they suffer their second loss of the Group stage. They played some excellent cricket in parts but overall, they will feel they should have done better with both bat and ball. It was a tough start for Namibia with the ball as they were hammered for 86 runs in 6 overs but they did well in the middle phase. Bernard Scholtz and Gerhard Erasmus bowled well and the latter was exceptional with his variations, picking up 4 wickets. They closed things out decently as well but the pacers did concede too many boundaries. With the bat, they lost an early wicket but bounced back in the first 6 overs. The likes of Jan Frylinck and Louren Steenkamp hit a couple of breezy 20s to set the platform but in a big chase, you need a couple of 40s or 50s and not 20s. The middle order succumbed to the pressure and Namibia ended up losing by a big margin.
The jitters have vanished - We saw what happened in India's first game, as they struggled with the bat for quite a while but it seems like the early tournament nerves are gone and the hosts mean business. A 93-run victory, India's biggest in terms of runs in a T20 World Cup and this will give them a lot of confidence heading into the next clash. Also, this is India's 10th consecutive win in the T20 World Cup, the most by any nation. With the bat, Ishan Kishan led from the front with a fiery 61 off just 24 balls. Another quickfire half-century from Hardik Pandya and a few 20s from the middle order got India over the 200-run mark. Still, one feels, India could and probably should have got to somewhere around 220-230. With the ball, Arshdeep Singh handed the hosts an early breakthrough, but they couldn't build on it. After the Powerplay, the likes of Jasprit Bumrah and Varun Chakaravarthy came on and weaved their magic. Varun got a wicket off his very first ball and finished with 3 in total. All 6 bowlers that were used contributed in the wicket column as the likes of Hardik Pandya and Axar Patel also picked up a couple of wickets each.
Massive win for India - After a fine showing with the bat earlier on, India have backed things up nicely with the ball and picked up their second win of the competition. Namibia showed sparks of brilliance, but against a champion side, you need to be switched on for every single ball.

शिवम दुबे To जेन ग्रीन OUT!
OUT! HIT WICKET! A tame end to the Namibian innings. Full and pushed across off, Zane Green goes deep in the crease and goes for the reverse-batted shot. He swings at it and fails to connect. On the follow-through of the swing, the bat clips the off stump and the stumps light up. Green cannot quite believe it. He stands there for a moment before dropping his head in disappointment. India win by 93 runs and make it two in two.

Dug in short, on middle. Zane pivots on the back foot for the pull but mistimes it to mid-wicket.

हार्दिक पंड्या To मैक्स हेन्गो
No hat-trick! After picking the last two wickets with full balls, Pandya tries to change it up and he bangs it in short, over middle. Max Heingo hangs on the back foot and defends it watchfully. A wry smile from Hardik as he realises that he should have stuck to the full ball.
Max Heingo is the last batter in for Namibia and he will face the hat-trick ball.

हार्दिक पंड्या To बेन शिकोंगो OUT!
OUT! PLUMB IN FRONT! Ben Shikongo takes the review more in hope than anything else. Hardik keeps the stumps in play with a length delivery. It's a slower off-cutter. Shikongo is caught on the crease and looks to whip it away. The ball stays low and Ben is beaten on the inside edge before being rapped low on the front pad. UltraEdge shows no bat and the Ball Tracking has the ball crashing into the middle stump. Two in two for Pandya and he is on a hat-trick.
Another one bites the dust and the new batter walks out. Ben Shikongo is in at number 10 for Namibia.

हार्दिक पंड्या To बर्नार्ड शॉल्ट्ज OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Hardik Pandya gets himself on the board. Pandya sticks to the pace-off option but this is fuller, on off and middle at 68 mph. Bernard stays leg side and once again, he fails to read the slower ball. He swings early and gets it right off the toe end of the blade. It goes only as far as long on, where Axar Patel takes an easy catch without moving an inch. Hardik gestures a thumbs-up to Axar, and the two exchange smiles.

हार्दिक पंड्या To बर्नार्ड शॉल्ट्ज
Not far away from clipping the top of the stumps! Off-cutter, on a good length, on middle. Scholtz exposes all three stumps and looks to work it away on the leg side, but swings early. Luckily for him, the ball balloons over the sticks.

FOUR! Gets it away! Bumrah goes searching for another yorker, but it comes out as a low full toss, just outside the off pole. Fast hands from Bernard Scholtz as he slices it to the left of the man at backward point for a boundary.
The next batter is Bernard Scholtz.

जसप्रीत बुमराह To रूबेन ट्रम्पेलमैन OUT!
OUT! BOWLED! Yorker nailed to absolute perfection by Jasprit Bumrah. Seam-up delivery at 89 mph, it lands in the region between the popping crease and the stumps. Ruben Trumpelmann backs away early. He fails to get his bat down in time and the ball scoots under his blade before crashing into the sticks.

Shivam digs it in short, on off, Ruben swivels on the back foot for the pull but gets it high on the bat. The ball balloons and drops well in front of long on. Axar Patel does not commit himself to the catch as it was a Free Hit ball and collects it on the bounce. They cross.

शिवम दुबे To रूबेन ट्रम्पेलमैन
A polite enquiry for LBW but turned down! Hang on, India are going for the review. Almost an afterthought from the bowling side. Back-of-the-hand slower one, on a nagging length, on off and middle. Ruben hangs deep in the crease and has a big heave across the line but is undone by the slowness of the ball. The ball catches the batter high on the back thigh. UltraEdge shows no bat but the Ball Tracking has the ball going over the stumps.

शिवम दुबे To रूबेन ट्रम्पेलमैन
NO BALL! Dube takes pace off first up, on a length, sprayed on the pads. Trumpelmann walks inside the line and has a big swing at it but fails to connect. The ball brushes the pads and goes behind to the keeper. Uh, oh, the siren goes off. Dube has overstepped. Free Hit coming up.

Slower one from Pandya, on a good length and outside off. Trumpelmann has a swipe at it but seems to get an under edge on it. The ball dies on its way to the keeper.
DRINKS BREAK! What was a decent start to the chase for Namibia went downhill rather quickly once Varun Chakaravarthy was introduced into the attack. It is more about what the African side can take out of this remaining phase of the game than anything else. India will want to close this game out as efficiently as they can and not let any complacency creep in. Hardik Pandya to bowl after the break. He has been wicketless so far, conceding 15 runs in his 2 overs.

Chance of a run out, but Axar Patel fumbles the ball. A yorker from Bumrah, angled into the pads, Trumpelmann misses the flick, and the ball goes off the pads to point. Trumpelmann wanders down the pitch, but Green sends him back. Patel fails to pick up the ball, and if he had picked it, he could have run to the stumps himself and dislodged the bails. Trumpelmann was so far out.

OUT! TAKEN! Jasprit Bumrah nearly messes up badly but a last-ditch effort turns it into a spectacular catch. Flighted ball from Axar Patel, slightly full and on off. Malan Kruger sits down to sweep but gets a top edge that goes high in the air. Bumrah at short fine leg runs to his left but stops a bit before realising the ball is swerving away from him. He lunges across with both hands and snaffles it at the last moment. Namibia slip further.

Gerhard Erasmus stays leg side of the ball, reaches for it and lofts it back over the bowler's head. Tilak Varma at long off, moves to his right and takes a simple catch.
Midway through the chase and the gap is widening between the two teams. India were 120/2, whereas Namibia are 88/4.

वरुण चक्रवर्ती To जे जे स्मित OUT!
OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! An ungainly swipe across the line and JJ Smit pays the price. A two-ball duck for Smit. 3 wickets in 10 legal balls for Chakaravarthy. Googly from Varun, and he tosses this one up, but the length stays more on the shorter side, on off. Smit hangs deep in the crease before taking a step across the stumps. He has a big heave across the line, and the ball skids through to go under the blade and hit the stumps.

वरुण चक्रवर्ती To निकोल लॉफ्टी-ईटन OUT!
OUT! TAKEN! Wickets off successive overs for Varun Chakaravarthy. Varun switches to around the wicket for the left-hander, outside off, flatter and shorter. Loftie-Eaton charges down the track but fails to get close to the ball. He still swings through and the ball is sliced off the outer half. It is skied towards wide long off, where Axar Patel runs across to his right and snaffles it. Namibia are now 86/3, needing 124 runs in 64 balls.
A bit more insight on that dead ball from Gerhard Erasmus provided by Ian Smith on air. He says that umpire Rod Tucker actually ruled out the delivery, not for being illegal but he felt that the batter wasn't ready. Sunil Gavaskar then mentions that the batter did attempt the shot, so it is what it is but in the end, the attempted delivery itself was a legal one from Erasmus.

Just short! Bowled by going a bit wide on the crease, on a nagging length, on middle. Gerhard walks inside the line of the ball to play the lap. It goes uppishly towards Bumrah, who opts not to dive and gets his body behind the ball to make the stop.
A few threads have come loose from the ball, and the umpire brings out the scissors to cut them away.

A bit quicker this time and the length stays full, on off, Loftie-Eaton plays the reverse and hits it hard to backward point, where Jasprit Bumrah misfields and concedes a single.

Beaten! From around the wicket to the left-hander, full and outside off, Loftie-Eaton pushes away from his body but the ball sneaks past the outside edge. Ishan Kishan is quick to take the bails off but Jan Nicol's back leg was inside the crease.

Almost chopped it back on! Skidding through, not that short for the cut and not that wide either. Around the off stump, Erasmus hangs back and goes for the cut. Gets an inside edge and the ball lands beside the leg pole before going behind for a couple of runs.

Another googly, fuller and on middle. Gerhard Erasmus picks it from the hand and gets forward in defence.
The next batter is the Namibian skipper, Gerhard Erasmus.

वरुण चक्रवर्ती To लौरेन स्टीनकैंप OUT!
OUT! TIMBER! Louren Steenkamp does not pick the googly at all and sees his stumps shattered. Wrong 'un from Varun first up, on a length, on middle. Steenkamp does not move his feet at all and just pushes at the ball with his hands. The ball lands and spins back in to go past the inside edge. Louren leaves a yawning gap between the bat and the pad and the ball goes through the gate to crash into the sticks. The 34-run stand is broken.
Varun Chakaravarthy is now into the attack.

On a hard length, angled in, on middle. Loftie-Eaton waits back and taps it back on the deck with a straight bat. At the end of 7 overs, Namibia are 67/1, needing 143 runs in 78 balls.

FOUR! Off the edge! Off-cutter, on a nagging length, on off. Jan Nicol Loftie-Eaton hangs his bat out but the ball takes the outside edge and races fine of the man at deep third for a boundary.

A corker of a yorker from Bumrah! Right at the base of the off stump. Louren Steenkamp is beaten for pace and he fails to get his bat down in time. It clips the off stump before deflecting down to deep third. Louren is not alert to the situation and just stands his ground. He gets called through for a single by his partner and he crosses over.

NO BALL! A well-directed bumper from Bumrah but he has overstepped in the process. It sails over the right shoulder of Louren as he ducks under it. Free Hit coming up.

Bumrah spots Loftie-Eaton backing away and he follows him with a hard-length delivery. Jan Nicol has a swing at it. It comes off the splice of the bat in front of mid off. Just a single.

Wide! Full and quick but down leg, Loftie-Eaton walks inside the line but he is beaten for pace, and he misses out on the glance.
DRINKS BREAK! 57/1 in the Powerplay for Namibia, not quite the 86/1 we saw from India, but the Rhinos do have a very decent platform to go on and make the hosts worry. Jan Frylinck played a few aggressive shots and picked up a few boundaries before getting out and now, Louren Steenkamp seems to be well-set at the crease. The challenge for Namibia now is that the likes of Jasprit Bumrah and the Indian spinners are yet to make an appearance and they will have to keep going no matter who the bowler is if they are to pick up a win. India will want to get a few wickets in the middle phase and get the game out of Namibia's reach. That said, Jasprit Bumrah does come on to bowl right after the Powerplay.

SIX! All the way! An ideal end to the Powerplay for Namibia. Arshdeep serves the short ball again, outside off. Steenkamp knows that backward point and third man are inside the circle. He arches back and uses the pace on the ball. He gets under the ball and glides it over backward point. The ball lands on the boundary cushions on the full. 17 runs off the final over of the Powerplay.

Oh, a direct hit and it would have been curtains for Loftie-Eaton. Full and outside off, Jan pre-meditates the scoop but adjusts and jams it down to short third for a single. His bat gets stuck in the turf but the throw at the bowler's end from Jasprit Bumrah is wide.

Back of a length and outside off, Jan Nicol Loftie-Eaton stays on his toes, plays away from the body and gets it through cover-point for a single.
Will Hardik Pandya bowl three in a row? The answer is no. No spin just yet. Suryakumar Yadav turns to Shivam Dube.

अर्शदीप सिंह To जैन फ्राइलिंक OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! The sound off the bat is good again but unfortunately for Jan Frylinck, the connection isn't all that good as the ball goes off the toe-end of the bat. Arshdeep Singh bowls another one that is short of a length and over off and middle, but it is the knuckle-ball. Frylinck leans back to pull and does so early and aerially. There is an extra fielder out in the deep on the leg side and Frylinck finds Shivam Dube at deep mid-wicket. Just when Jan was starting to look good, he is sent packing. 250th T20 wicket for Arshdeep.

Fuller in length on off, shapes away sharply. Steenkamp gets a thick outside edge as he looks to drive and gets it to short third. The slip fielder was just removed by Pandya and this would have gone to hands if a fielder was at first slip. A single is taken.

Half an appeal for a caught behind. Hardik Pandya asks the keeper - 'Awaaz aaya tha?' Which means, did you hear a noise? There was a noise, certainly, but India didn't take the review. A well-directed short ball over middle, Jan Frylinck looks to pull but is hurried, and it seems that the ball just brushed the helmet on its way to Ishan Kishan.
