India rode on half centuries from Ishan Kishan and Hardik Pandya to register a comfortable 93-run victory over Namibia in the Group A T20 World Cup 2026 match in New Delhi yesterday.

Ishan blasted 61 off just 24 balls up front and Hardik struck 52 off 28 balls to take India to 209 for nine, the side’s third-highest team total in a T20 World Cup match.

Varun Chakaravarthy then delivered three wickets for just seven runs to restrict Namibia to 116 runs. Jasprit Bumrah, returning after missing the opening match against USA, ended with one for 20 from his four overs.

India is now top of Group A with four points from two games and face Pakistan in Colombo on Sunday in its next match.
