Despite another late wobble, the Netherlands made it across the line in another low-scoring affair versus Namibia. Sri Lanka also suffered a mid-innings collapse courtesy of the fifth ever T20 World Cup hat-trick (the thirty-ninth in all internationals, and first by an Emirati bowler) from Karthik Meiyappan, but cruised home regardless. However, Namibia will back themselves to make it through the group with a final game versus UAE and a strong net run-rate, while Netherlands will have to hold their own against Sri Lanka or risk missing out.
