Submitted by editor on Sun, 01/31/2010 - 15:11.Namibia’s woes continued as they crashed to an 87-run defeat to Eastern Province in their one-day CSA Challenge match in Port Elizabeth on Sunday.
EP won the toss and elected to bat, but were soon in trouble when Louis Klazinga trapped Michael Price LBW for a duck.
Michael Smith soon followed for 12, while JJ Smuts was run out by Norbert Manyande for a duck to leave EP struggling at 3/18.
Namibia however could not drive home their advantage as Kelly Smuts (46) and Umar Abrahams (30) launched a revival, before Sean Adair went on to top score with 49 runs.
