David Wiese bludgeoned an unbeaten 66 as Namibia stayed alive at the T20 World Cup on Wednesday with a six-wicket triumph over the Netherlands.
In a sweltering Abu Dhabi, former South Africa international Wiese hit five sixes and four boundaries as Namibia chased down 165 with six balls to spare.
It was Namibia's first ever win at the World Cup and kept alive their hopes of making the Super 12 stage. Defeat almost certainly means the Dutch will be eliminated.
