Left-arm quick Zaheer Khan struck the first blow for India. A well-directed yorker trapped opener Stephan Swanepoel in front with the Namibian score reading 19/1. In his next over, Khan sent No 3 Louis Burger on his way with a similar delivery. The spinners, then, took over with Yuvraj Singh (four wickets), Dinesh Mongia (two wickets) and Harbhajan Singh (two wickets) claiming all the remaining wickets and sealing their side's 181- run win.
