[Watch] David Wiese's heroics with bat and ball in Super Over vs Oman

David Wiese delivered with both bat and ball in the Super Over of the NAM vs OMN match 3 of ICC T20 World Cup 2024.

Former South African cricketer David Wiese became Namibia’s hero once again as he stepped up with both bat and ball in the Super Over against Oman at the ICC T20 World Cup 2024.

Wiese has been playing for Namibia for the past three years and he had helped them qualify for the Super 12 round during the T20 World Cup 2021 in the UAE. He has now started the campaign in 2024 in the West Indies on a resounding note in a thriller against Oman.

The NAM vs OMN game reached the one-over eliminator after both teams scored 109 runs in the regular match at the Kensington Oval, Bridgetown, Barbados on Sunday night.

Namibia won the toss and elected to bowl first. On a sluggish surface Namibia managed to restrict Oman to a lowly total of 109. Namibia looked in control of the chase for almost their entire innings. However, with five runs needed in the last over, they lost two wickets to Mehran Khan.

It came down to two runs required off the last ball and they could steal a bye off it as the match got forced into a Super Over.

In the Super Over, Wiese thumped Bilal Khan for 10 runs off the first two balls and captain Gerhard Erasmus cracked two fours on the last two balls to take Namibia to 21. The 39-year-old Wiese took the onus upon himself with the ball as well and conceded 10 runs to seal two points for Namibia.

Earlier in the game, the lanky all-rounder had also taken three important wickets. He deservedly bagged the Man of the Match award.
