**Namibia Stuns South Africa in Historic T20I Upset**
**Windhoek, Namibia** – In a stunning upset, Namibia defeated South Africa by four wickets in their one-off T20 International match, marking a historic day for Namibian cricket. The victory, achieved on home soil, is Namibia’s first T20I win against South Africa and the first time South Africa has lost a T20I match to an associate nation.
South Africa, batting first, managed 134 for 8 in their 20 overs. Namibia chased down the target in the final over, finishing at 135 for 6. Wicketkeeper-batsman Jan Green anchored the innings with a crucial, unbeaten 30 off 23 balls, while captain Gerhard Erasmus contributed 21 off 21.
Namibia’s bowlers put on a disciplined performance, restricting the South African batsmen. Trumpelmann took three wickets, Max Hoogenraad grabbed two, and Erasmus, Smit, and Shikongo each claimed one.
This victory is Namibia’s fourth against a full-member nation, having previously defeated Ireland, Zimbabwe, and Sri Lanka. The win is a major boost for Namibia, currently ranked 16th in the ICC T20I rankings.
