R Ashwin: I think the surface had decent bounce and there is a good cross-breeze so that really helps bowling spin. Whatever happens for the spinner happens in the air. Change of pace is very important to get dot balls in. I thought whenever the seam position was right it held on the pitch. I think today's surface is better than the last one we played on. Dew is a big factor, and how much ever you practice with dew it won't always come out right. It is one of those games where any team will find it hard to just get out and play but wearing India colours is a matter of pride.

7.27pm: Fine effort by Namibia to get up to 132. They didn't look like they would get there after the early wickets but Wiese played a useful hand as did the lower order to keep pushing the total along. For India, Bumrah, Ashwin and Jadeja were sensationally good.

Bumrah to Wiese, OUT, slower ball does it. Wiese was taking a few steps down the track, but Bumrah not only yorks him again, but also with pace off. Wiese too early into his chip, goes off the toe end for a simple catch to extra cover

Paarth: "i don't think this team is bad/needs an overhaul etc., it was a bad tournament which happens and maybe the scheduling/squad selection needs to be adapted according to that"

Mohammed Shami to Frylinck, 5 runs, four overthrows. Antoher full ball, this one was on off, he was on the front foot to tap towards point. They set off for a quick single. Jadeja the fielder and he's swooping in like a hawk, collects and has a shy at the striker's end in one fluid motion - happened too quickly for backing up and it's four. Would have been out with a direct hit

Virat: "Still wondering Why Ashwin was not selected for first 2 games considering spin freindly pitches and he was in form in IPL... " --- well to be fair to the team, Varun C was also magnificent in the IPL.
