Windhoek at 1:00 PM (IST) on April 27
The final of the ICC World Cricket League Division Two 2019 will be played between the hosts Namibia and Table toppers Oman at Wanderers Cricket Ground, Windhoek in the afternoon.
Oman finally lost a game in the tournament as they faced 145 runs drubbing at the hands of Papua New Guinea in their last fixture. However with four convincing previous wins in the tournament, Oman will be favourites to win the battle.
The hosts, on the opposite, have managed three wins and two defeats in five encounters played in the tournament. They faced 4 wickets defeats in the earlier encounter with Oman and have a perfect opportunity to revenge the loss.
