In reply to Namibia's total of 163 runs, Sri Lanka were bowled out for 108 runs in 19 overs. 

    Chasing a target of 164 runs, Sri Lanka were off to a bad start as they lost their top 4 batters for just 40 runs. After this, wickets kept on falling at regular intervals. Captain Dasun Shanaka was the top scorer for his team with 29 runs (4x2, 6x1) while Bhanuka Rajapaksa scored 20 runs (4x2).
