Zimbabwe Under-19s 114 for 3 (Madhevere 47) beat Namibia Under-19s 113 (Nungu 2-11, Madhevere 2-11, Myers 2-29) by seven wickets
Scorecard
Namibia's decision to bat backfired on them to such an extent that they began their innings losing two wickets in two overs and then were bowled out for 113. With the score on 4 for 46 in the 13th over, and Eben van Wyk gone for 24 - it would become the highest score of the innings - they shifted focus towards lasting the full 50 overs. Zimbabwe didn't mind. They used eight bowlers, and all of them conceded less than 4.5 runs per over. Nkosilathi Nungu, Dion Myers and Wesley Madhevere picked up two wickets each.
The chase began in exciting fashion with opener Gregory Dollar and No. 3 Myers falling before the score reached double-digits. But Madhevere put an end to the mini-slide, hitting 47 off 38 balls, with seven fours, and Zimbabwe got to their target with seven wickets and 183 balls to spare.
