Namibia 56-2 halfway through the chase, not in any great rush to knock the total off, but Scotland still need wickets.
And there's one! Leask cleans up Erasmus for 4. Massive scalp, Namibia 61-3.
Wiese at the crease, and he's going to be key. Get him quick and the match is still alive. If he's still in after four or five overs, that total will be dust.
Now Williams stumped for 23! Scotland putting up a decent fight. Namibia 67-4.
Scotland just about dragged the asking rate back to a run a ball with their spinners, but have now gone with pace again and are leaking runs all over the shop. Big mistake unless Sharif can redeem himself with a wicket.
JJ Smit pulls Chris Greaves for six. That might just be the death-knell for the Scottish fightback. Namibia 91-4.
Leask has Wiese caught for 16, but it's too little too late. Namibia 102-5, need just 8 off 14 balls.
Frylinck caught for 2 with the scores level. Prolonging the inevitable at this point, Namibia 109-6.
Smit wraps it up with a six, Namibia win with five deliveries to spare. Positives for Scotland to take from the bowling performance, taking it into the final over is a real achievement when defending a low score, but after the early carnage in their own innings they just couldn't get the extra 10-15 runs with the bat that would have bagged a win.
