The current ODI tri-series has been a bit weird. All 3 teams Namibia, Nepal and Netherlands have got smashing wins against each other.

Another away win for Namibia. Close one though.

Irish are playing Afghanistan in a full tour at UAE comprising test, t20is and odis which should be interesting to follow. Ireland start as the underdogs. Have to wait and see if Ireland has really deteriorated so much or they can win the test vs the Afghans.

It's not a real tour without Test matches.

Loftie-Eaton with a T20 ton in just 33 balls for Namibia against Nepal. A new record for T20Is. He came in at 3 down. Debutant Namibia opener Malan Kruger carried his bat for... 59 off 48 balls. Loftie-Eaton also took 2-29 off 3 overs.
Not thought much of Loftie-Eaton before, but then this bowling lark seems to be a recent thing too. Hopefully he continues to improve; he's still only 22.

South Africa doesn't do enough to help their fellow African teams , Kenya had some potential in the 2000's then died out ..Zim only had one bilateral series vs SA in the 90's when they had very good team ..Namibia and Uganda have qualified for the T20 WC but have not faced SA in T20
I feel this Namibia side could upset SA in a game or two , excellent team..Beating Nepal in Nepal twice is not easy and now they beat Netherlands .

Namibia had their team in South Africa's first class system for about a decade, but it became too costly for them to continue it if I remember correctly. I'm pretty sure that was Namibia's choice, albeit forced by financial constraints.

There was the Africa Cup initiative in the short form as well for a few years, it was a bit hit and giggle but I think there were some good experience to be gained as well

Here's Loftie-Eaton's shot to bring up the ton.
Love the de Grandhomme-esque hair do.

Looks like decent coverage. I tried to find somewhere showing the OD series, but failed. Anyone know how to watch this series?

Test match between Afghanistan and Ireland starting soon. Two teams striving to make it to the big stage. Will be keenly following it. While Afghans start as favorites obviously, absence of Rashid Khan does even the odds slightly. Van Woerkom has qualified to Ireland from NZ and playing as the lead spinner for the Irish this match.

Great match today between Nepal and Netherlands. Van der Merwe's still got it and Nepal are still chokers

Nepal's selection tactics are weird , they use way too many bowling options and batsmen bat all over the place .For example Gulsan Jha batted at No.10 today vs Netherlands but didn't bowl, yet Nepal used 8 different bowling options in the match
The previous game Gulsan Jha batted at 6 and bowled 1 over ...
Rohit Paudel has had a lot of success with his off breaks recently but didn't bowl in the match , he's batted 3, 4, 5 ..In one match he didn't bat at all , kept dropping himself down the order..
They haven't done as well as they should have against Namibia and Netherlands in the 50 over matches and now the T20 stuff ..
I think they need to keep it more simple .

Seems like the NL batters had some good Namibian biltong today
