NAM vs UAE, 10th Match Preview

Namibia take on UAE in Match 10 of the 2022 T20 World Cup on Thursday evening. After beating Sri Lanka in their opening game, Namibia lost to Netherlands by five wickets on Tuesday. UAE have played two and lost two so far in this tournament. High on confidence after their win over Sri Lanka, Namibia were brought back down to earth by Netherlands on Tuesday. However, they should have more than enough quality to defeat UAE. UAE were not far away from beating Netherlands in their opening match but found Sri Lanka far too strong for them in their second match. It will require a big performance with bat and ball if UAE are to beat Namibia.

Namibia were disappointing on Tuesday but overall, we are predicting a comfortable victory for them in this match. Considering the team combination, Namibia is expected to win this match.
