T20 WC: Spin dominates India-Namibia clash in Delhi, tournament record in spin bowling broken
Feb 12, 2026
While it was Namibia skipper Gerald Erasmus who kept India to 209/9 with a four-wicket haul, for the Men in Blue, it was fine spells from Varun Chakravarthy and Axar Patel that ruined Namibia's day despite a fine start in the powerplay. 10 wickets falling to spin is the second-most in a T20I match held in India, after the India-New Zealand clash in 2016 T20 World Cup at Nagpur, where 12 wickets fell to spinners.
