Namibia, who won the toss and chose to field, were bowled out for 116Wrist-spinner Varun Chakravarthy claimed 3-7 as defending champions India thrashed Namibia by 93 runs in their Group A clash in the Men's T20 World Cup at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Thursday.
India posted 209/9 in their 20 overs, powered by Ishan Kishan's blistering 61 off 24 balls and Hardik Pandya's 52 off 28 balls. Namibia's captain Gerhard Erasmus was the pick of their bowlers, returning figures of 4-20 with his slingy style and myriad of variations.
Namibia's chase began brightly with Louren Steenkamp and Jan Frylinck attacking in the powerplay, but Chakravarthy's spell dismantled their middle order. Every Indian bowler chipped in with at least a wicket as Namibia were bowled out for 116 in 18.2 overs. The 93-run margin is also India's biggest victory in Men's T20 World Cup history, underlining their dominance despite occasional lapses in the match.
