Namibia U19s vs Kenya U19, at Drummond, Aug 09 2011 - Match Result
The Namibians are celebrating because they believe that they have done enough to qualify.
So Namibia win this game up 109 runs. A very comprehensive victory. Once Allan was out you could tell that the Kenya's didnt feel that they had a chance.
JO Ochieng was the pick of the batsmen with 54 runs. The two Baard brothers were both very effective when bowling and it comes as no suprise that Stefan Baard has just been named man of the match.
Its just been confirmed that Namibia have just claimed the last qualifying place for the u-19 world cup. Well down Namibia!
So after 2 weeks of non stop cricketing action here in Ireland. I can confirm that the Scotland have finished first in qualifying and Nepal, Ireland, Afganistan, PNG and Namibia have all made it through.
