Probably the tidiest, neatest most well run City in Africa
How would that compare to Kigali?

Windhoek does look clean in pictures.

How do they keep the dredge from south of the border from coming north?

Not too sure. I've been to Namibia over 20 times, I could easily live there. Quite a few Zimbos in Windhoek. With fewer people there are less opportunities, I don't think many South Africans try and go there.
Kigali is also well managed, can't say I know much about it.

Just noticed on that one ball, that the bowler stays in the middle of the wicket after the ball has been hit for a single, remember how many run outs we missed last game because of lack of match awareness? They hesitated for a second run there and if they ran, only a direct hit would haver given us a chance, are the coaches not teaching these kids to run back to the stumps after bowling?

I don't think there's a bowler in the world that runs back to his stumps. :lol:

Think the keeper put one down there. Eeish

I see there have been questions on social media about the helmets. If we beat Namibia we need to find out who stole them.

They are bantering Tino the whole time, he seems like he is a very good sport to be around!
