NAM vs IR-A 2020 – 4th and 5th T20 Fantasy Preview

Namibia is playing a series of 5 T20s, all at the same pitch in Centurion, South Africa. So far, the series has gone very much in a similar way in all three games. Ireland Wolves have batted first in all three games and while Namibia completed the chase in the 1st T20, Ireland won the 2nd T20 by 23 runs and the 3rd T20 by 49 runs.

We’re looking at a similar par score of around 17o-175 which could be a winning 1st innings total. In the last game, Ireland A put up 196/5 and that allowed them an easy win. They will want to wrap up the series early and for that, they will try to bat first once again.

  • Joshua Little hasn’t conceded more than 6 RPO in any game.

Namibia

With scores of 6, 12 and 12, Namibia wicket-keeper Zane Green hasn’t been too good at the top, and I’ll skip him because there are better options available behind the wickets. The side will be led by Gerhard Erasmus who failed with 5 in the 3rd T20, but he smashed 43 and a 63* in the previous games and he’s a very vital cog in this Namibia Eagles middle order.

Bernard Scholtz has always been one of their main bowlers but in this series so far, he got a wicket in the first game but then couldn’t in the next two, and didn’t even bowl out his quota, so I’ll leave him out of my NAM vs IR-A fantasy side for the final 2 games. Instead, pick Ruben Trumpelmann who has 5 wickets in 3 games in this series and skip Jan Frylinck, who missed the playing eleven in the last game.

Ireland Wolves

After being flown down from Australia for this series, Stephen Doheny has proved his worth to the team, scoring 18, 63* and 58(33) in the most recent game, so the opener should be in in your Howzat (sign-up with code “READ1234”) fantasy team for the final two games. Another experienced player in the squad is Gareth Delany, who scored 69 in the 2nd T20 and 38(22) in the 3rd T20 as well, also having played for the national side.

If you ask me, Joshua Little has been the best bowler so far, though he hasn’t had much to show besides his wicket column. He’s got good numbers at the international level too, so I can’t leave him out of my team. Shane Getkate is another person who has had plenty of international games in recent months and his 2/33 in 4 overs shows that he can rake you in some massive fantasy leagues points as well.
