Namibia reaches ICC Super 12 stage t20 world cup There was one such lapse in the midst of this glory after beating Ireland by 8 wickets in 2021 which is making news. On the last ball of Ireland’s innings, Namibia squandered two run-out chances off the same ball and gave us a hilarious sight.
First David Wiese missed the stumps from a short distance and then another mistake was made at the non-striker’s end on the same ball when the batsmen were trying to get a third run.

On the last ball of the 20th over, Wiese bowled a full length delivery outside the off-stump. Simi Singh, in a pre-determined attempt to play a scoop into the leg side, only managed to thump the ball, which could not go past the bowler. Since it was the last ball of the innings, both the batsmen tried to steal a run. Wiese picked up the ball and threw the ball into the underarm which missed the stumps as well as the wicketkeeper and the ball went behind the wickets towards the boundary.
By the time the fielder could pick it up and throw it back, the batsmen had taken two runs and tried for the third they could successfully do; Thanks to the fielder who tossed the ball over the non-striker’s end and missed an easy run-out chance.
Earlier in the game, Ireland won the toss and came to bat first but could justify the decision as their batsmen could manage only 125 for 8. In reply, Namibia chased it down easily with 9 balls to spare, thanks. Unbeaten half-century from Gerhard Erasmus, who scored 53 runs. However, the real stars were the bowlers who restricted the Irish team to a low score. John Frylink took 3 for 21, while Player of the Match David Wiese took 2 for 22, along with his valuable contribution of 28 not out with the bat.
