    The ICC Event Technical Committee: Namibia have drafted seam-bowling all-rounder Alex Volschenk into their squad for the 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup after fast bowler Ben Shikongo was ruled out with a thigh injury, the International Cricket Council (ICC) said on Monday.

    Shikongo sustained the injury to his right thigh during Namibia’s Group A match against India at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi on February 12 and was subsequently withdrawn from the tournament. The ICC Event Technical Committee approved Volschenk as his replacement for the rest of the competition.

    “The Event Technical Committee of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 has approved Alex Volschenk as a replacement for Ben Shikongo in the Namibia squad,” the governing body said in a statement on Monday.
