India A secured a dominant 130-run victory over Namibia in a T20 World Cup warm-up match, underlining strong bench strength ahead of the home tournament.
In a high-scoring first innings, India A posted 197 for 8, built around a stabilising third-wicket stand between Naman Dhir and Riyan Parag after two early dismissals, with late-order hitting stretching the total close to 200. Namibia’s chase never settled, with only Dylan Leicher reaching 20 as India’s bowlers shared wickets to bundle them out for 67 inside 13 overs.
The result follows earlier warm-up wins for India A against the USA and for the senior side against South Africa, extending a confident build-up for the defending champions. The performances reinforce India’s depth as they prepare to open their T20 World Cup 2026 campaign against the USA in Mumbai on February 7.
