Alex Volschenk replaces Ben Shikongo in Namibia squad

Namibia have called up Alex Volschenk as the injury replacement for Ben Shikongo for the remainder of the ongoing T20 World Cup 2026 in India and Sri Lanka.

Volschenk was approved as replacement by the ICC after Shikongo was ruled out with a right thigh injury sustained in the match against India on February 12.

Namibia lost that fixture in Delhi to the hosts by 93 runs. With three losses in three games, they are eliminated from the race for the Super 8s.

Namibia's final tournament match will be against Pakistan in Colombo on February 18.

Jarvis replaces Safyaan Sharif

Scotland have brought in Jack Jarvis as a replacement for the injured Safyaan Sharif in their squad. Jarvis has eight T20I caps for Scotland and was already with the squad as a travelling reserve.

Seamer Sharif injured his right groin during a team training session on February 12.

The replacement of a player requires approval from the Event Technical Committee before the new player can be officially added to the squad.
