OUT! Caught (Sub). Nicol Loftie-Eaton to Shivam Sharma. Quicker ball short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep square leg. That's the end of the first innings, and Canada have posted a decent total of 219 on the board. Both openers got off to a solid start, putting together a promising 72-run partnership for the first wicket. Ali Nadeem Abbasi looked in fine touch, scoring a well-crafted 46, while Yuvraj Samra chipped in with a handy 30. However, the momentum dipped as wickets began to fall at regular intervals. Saad Bin Zafar added some valuable runs towards the end, finishing on 35 with a few classy strokes. On the bowling front, Namibia put in a disciplined performance, with Tangeni Lungameni and Nicol Loftie-Eaton particularly impressive, claiming three wickets each. The run chase is set to begin shortly, and it promises to be an intriguing contest.
