Australia secure their place in the T20 World Cup Super 8s as they hammer Namibia by nine wickets with 14 overs to spare.
Australia secured their place in the T20 World Cup Super 8s as they bowled Namibia out for 72 on their way to a thumping nine-wicket win in Antigua.
Travis Head finished unbeaten on 34 from 17 balls and captain Mitchell Marsh hit the winning runs with two balls left of the sixth over. South Africa qualified for the Super 8s after Sri Lanka's match against Nepal in Lauderhill, Florida, was abandoned without a ball being bowled because of rain. Two wickets for Hazlewood and one for Pat Cummins left Namibia 17-3 after six overs, while skipper Gerhard Erasmus took 17 balls to get off the mark.
The 32-year-old is the first men's player to reach the landmark for Australia and third overall after Ellyse Perry and Megan Schutt.
