Van Schalkwyk Stars as USA Beat Namibia to Keep Super Eight Hopes Alive

Shadley van Schalkwyk continued his great form and picked two crucial wickets as the USA restricted Namibia for 168/6 in 20 overs while chasing a target of 200 runs to register a dominant 31-run win in their last match of the T20 World Cup 2026 group stage played at the iconic MA Chidambaram Stadium on Sunday.

This is the USA's second consecutive win in the tournament, and with this, they have kept their hopes alive of reaching the Super 8 stage. However, the USA will need either India or Pakistan to lose both their remaining group stage matches by good margins.
