NAM vs SA 6th Match Playing 11: Gerhard Erasmus-led Namibia will square off against Bjorn Fortuin-led South Africa in the 06th match of the Namibia T20I Tri-Series 2026, played at the Namibia Cricket Ground, Windhoek.

South Africa are in the top spot of the points table with two wins out of three games and a superior run rate. Meanwhile, Namibia have only one win out of three games and are in last place.

They will be aiming for a massive win in the upcoming game to gain the top two spots in the series.

Namibia and South Africa have met on two occasions, and Namibia won on both occasions.

Namibia won the toss and opted to bowl. Speaking at the toss, Gerhard Erasmus said, “We will bowl first. I think it’s a new day, and yes we do have a nice record against them, but I think it’s more for us to get into the final in front of our own fans.”

“So I think the win would be special because of that firstly, and then obviously to keep a positive record against them would be very good for us, but I think it’s all about winning the tournament if you play in the tournament, and we need to take a step towards that today. Kruger comes in for Loftie-Eaton.”

Meanwhile, South Africa captain Bjorn Fortuin said, “Obviously with it being a used wicket, we would have probably looked to bat anyway, so whatever we’ve got to do, bat or bowl, we’ve got to do it well. It would be nice to stop them, but it’s early.”

“We’re just looking to build on the good work that we’ve done over the past couple of games, yeah, and have some nice momentum going into the back end of the comp,” added Fortuin.

Speaking on today’s South Africa Cricket Team playing 11, Bjorn Fortuin said, “Subrayen and Jansen are out. Nqobani Mokoena and Simelane are in.”
