Namibia vs United States of America Prediction & Betting Tips 2022

Namibia are coming into the contest registering only one win from their last five matches. They restricted the UAE to 166/9 and scripted a successful chase in 28.2 overs with seven wickets in hand. Ben Shikongo, Tangeni Lungameni, and Gerhard Erasmus picked a couple of wickets each in the match while most of the bowlers picked a single wicket each. Michael van Lingen continued his superb touch played a knock of unbeaten 71 runs in the game and ensured a successful chase in 28.2 overs. Also, he played with a brilliant strike rate of 133.96 during his match-winning knock.

Michael van Lingen and Lo-handre Louwrens are the in-form batters for the side. Ruben Trumpelmann and Tangeni Lungameni have been bowling brilliantly and with their recent form, they can trouble the opposition batters once again.

United States of America played their last ODI in November 2022 against Namibia and suffered a defeat by six wickets. Gajanand Singh scored 36 runs in the fixture while Ian Holland played a knock of 40 runs. The team posted a total of 211/7 in the first innings while the opposition chased the target in 44.4 overs. Holland and Jessy Singh continued their form with the ball in the fixture taking two and one wickets respectively. Both of them have been brilliant with the ball recently and the USA would rely on both of them to provide some crucial breakthroughs for the team against Namibia.

Namibia vs United States of America Betting Odds

Jan Nicol Loftie-Eatonto score under 17.5 runs @1.87

Loftie-Eaton has been poor with the willow in his hand so far scoring under 17 runs in each of the last five games. He has registered scores of 8, 0, 15, 6, 0, and 5. The disappointing form of the all-rounder indicates that he is likely to score in single digits once again and so we predict him to end up scoring fewer runs than the mentioned mark.

Namibia vs United States of America Top Team Batsmen

Gerhard Erasmusto be Namibia’s top batter @3.3

Erasmus has played two 40+ knocks in the last six innings and also his record against the USA both raise the chances of the batter playing a superb knock against the opposition. He has scored 202 runs from six matches with an average of 33.66 including a half-century. These stats increase the probability of him being the top batter for Namiobia in the match.

Aaron Jones to be United States of America's top batter @3.9

Aaron Jones has two 30+ scores in the last four matches to his name. The batter has piled up 144 runs from six innings against Namibia and his career average of 40.26 makes him the candidate to be the top batter for the team.

Namibia vs United States of America Top Team Bowlers

Ruben Trumpelmannto be Namibia’s top bowler @3.54

Trumpelmann has been in red hot form with the ball in his hand. He has scalped 15 wickets from six innings and often provides breakthroughs for the side in the opening spell. He has picked six wickets from four innings with an economy of 4.03 and a bowling average of 20.16.

Nisarg Patelto be United States of America’s top bowler @7.4

Nisarg Patel has been consistently taking wickets for the team and has scalped five batters in the last four matches. Also, he has taken six wickets form five innings with an economy of 5.47 against Namibia and so he is likely to become a top bowler for the team in the fixture.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win: Namibia

Although Namibia have won just a single game in their last five matches, their head to head record against USA has been full of domination. In the last five matches between these two teams, Namibia have won four times and are likely to add another victory to the tally with a string bowling inlup including Rubel Trumpelmann.

• Namibia to win @1.60
