Skipper Mitchell Marsh chose to bowl first after winning the toss.

T20 World Cup 2024 Match 24: Australia vs Namibia| Captains’ Corner

I thought it was a great performance from our bowling team. It was a beautiful wicket, a bit of swing out there. A professional performance. Great to qualify for the Super Eight. We get really busy after the game against Scotland and we will try to manage (our workloads). Hopefully we can win that and then move into the Super Eight. (On Zampa) If you look at his career, over the past four or five years, he is probably our most important player, in our structure. He loves the big moment, the pressure and he is bowling beautifully at the moment. (How they are keeping themselves prepared) Probably having not as many beers as you had back in the day Haydos (laughs). We have our families here, and with the wind around, it is perfect (smiles).

Mitchell Marsh(Australia Captain) said post-match

(On what they learnt from tonight) That you cannot sit back against the best in the world – that is one thing we learnt tonight. The skill gap is there but you can sort of close that by fighting fire with fire. We did not do that tonight. A good side like Australia will expose you if you are not willing to mentally step up on this level on a particular day. The conditions were fair throughout the last two games and we could not play well enough according to those conditions.
