Namibia A and Ireland Wolves will lock horns in the final game of the three-match T20I series on Thursday, March 24. The Wanderers Cricket Ground in Windhoek will host the encounter.
The ongoing series has been an exciting affair thus far. Hosts Namibia A won the opening game by two runs (D/L Method) despite losing quite a few wickets at the top. But the Ireland Wolves made a strong comeback to win the second match on March 23 by 32 runs.
After being put into bat first, the Wolves racked up a massive score of 173 for four on the board. Shane Getkate was the pick of the batters as he made 54 runs off 34 balls with the help of six fours and one six. Murray Commins also made a quickfire 36-ball 37 while opening the batting.

The required run-rate was almost 12 and the batters needed to churn out some big shots. Skipper JJ Smit smashed three fours and four sixes on his way to a 25-ball 46, but his efforts went in vain. Shaun Fouche also scored 31 runs off 25 balls before getting run out.
