That is it from the semi-finals. PNG, the newbies are on a roll. Will their juggernaut roll over Netherlands or will they encounter a roadblock? We will get you all the coverage from that game as well. Until then, tada!!

Assad Vala: Credit to the bowlers and the fielders. Bit sloppy but job well done. There are still areas to improve. But am happy with the job done. We have one more game. We don't want to be satisfied and we have spoken about it in team meetings.

Gerhard Erasmus: We lost the game of cricket and we would take forward the understanding of the conditions for tomorrow. The emotions were there to see when we qualified. It means a lot for the squad, the coaching staff, for the people and hopefully a couple of kids back home who want to take up cricket. We would want to win tournaments and play competitive cricket.

Norman Vanua, Man of the Match: It is tough but am glad we get over the line as Namibia is a tough opponent. The wicket was good to bowl on. Played Namibia a couple of times and I know which batter tries to do what, that helped.

22:39 Local Time, 18:39 GMT, 00:09 IST: It's Netherlands vs PNG then! That will happen tomorrow. But today is all about PNG's spirit. They had 130 to play with and have done considerably well to defend it. The bowling effort was pulled off with some immaculate execution and that helped them to defend this target. The yorkers, slower balls, slower bumpers...PNG bowlers showcased the entire variety. Namibia started off cautiously but could not trigger the next gear while batting. In the end, they left themselves too much to chase and fell short by 18 runs.

Norman Vanua to Smit, SIX, six to end but that is no consolation for Namibia who have been humbled by the PNG unit by 18 runs. Length delivery and Smit smoked it over long-on to get a maximum

Norman Vanua to Zane Green, 1 run, can't really call that a dropped chance! That was a slower ball and Zane Green slammed it down the ground for the bowler to get finger tips on it

Norman Vanua to Smit, leg byes, 1 run, low full toss, Smit misses out on that. Smit tried to flay that away but failed to connect it

Norman Vanua to Zane Green, 1 run, fuller delivery and Zane Green fails to get under it. Only drags the ball across the line to deep mid for a single

Norman Vanua to Zane Green, wide, too wide this time and has been wided

Norman Vanua to Smit, 1 run, he is mixing it up really well. Digs the ball into the surface and the ball goes off the handle and past the keeper for a single

Norman Vanua to Zane Green, 1 run, wide yorker and has been driven down to long-off for a single. Only a single means 30 needed off final 5 balls. Five sixes anyone?

Pokana to Zane Green, 1 run, short ball again and has been slammed away to deep mid for only a single. Pokana ends with terrific figures of 4-1-20-0. 31 needed off the final over

Pokana to Zane Green, no run, slower delivery outside off and Zane Green was through with his shot too early

Pokana to Zane Green, no run, short ball banged in and Zane Green misses the pull

Pokana to Zane Green, 2 runs, Vala at deep mid fumbles and they come charging back for a couple. Short ball and it was pulled away to deep mid where the skipper came charging in at the ball but fumbled to allow the second run

Pokana to Zane Green, 2 runs, short ball, pulled behind square and they get a couple as the man at fine leg was slow off the blocks

Pokana to Smit, 1 run, mistimed pull and it goes to the deep mid region for a single

Norman Vanua to Smit, 1 run, fuller delivery and has been driven down to long-off for a single. Only two off the over and Namibia need 37 more to win
