Bjorn Kotze: a captain's innings © Wiets Coetzee

But the main man of the day was Kotze, who brought up his maiden first-class century during the morning session, and went on to bat for 345 balls and more than six-and-a-half hours to ensure his platform did not go to waste. He received strong support from the tail - most notably the No. 9, Kola Burger, who made 47, and the last man Louis Klazinga (19), as the last four wickets added a healthy 166 to Namibia's overnight total of 314 for 6.

Canada's bowlers stuck to their task. They were without the services of the medium pacer, Durand Soraine, who had taken three wickets on the first day, but their spinner and captain, Sunil Dhaniram, kept chipping away and finished with 3 for 58 from 28 overs. He was unable to separate Namibia's last pair, however, and Kotze eventually declared after a tenth-wicket stand of 58.

After a lengthy stint in the field, Canada's openers were vulnerable to an early strike and sure enough, Abdul Jabbar was bowled by Klazinga for 2 as Namibia looked to make early inroads. Klazinga was again on target to remove Trevin Bastiampillai for 13, and when Ian van Zyl accounted for Qaiser Ali (19), Canada were shakily placed at 83 for 3. But Iqbal ensured that they would fight on into the third day.
