    Rohit c Green b Frylinck 56 (Ind 86-1)

    No (unlikely) century for Rohit Sharma.

    The India opener scoops the ball straight up, Namibia keeper Zane Green calls it and safely pouches the catch.

    Virat Kohli to emerge for his final T20 international innings as captain? No. It's Suryakumar Yadav. Hmm.

    50 for Rohitpublished at 7.5 overs

    Rohit Sharma flicks it past short fine leg for four before missing out twice in a row.

    But there's the 50...a tap into the leg-side for a single.

    That's 24 half-centuries in T20 internationals. Stunning career.

    Jan Frylinck starts with five dots in a row but rather spoils it with a short ball that Rohit Sharma helps round the corner for four more.

    India fans will have mixed feelings - it's great to see their best cricket finally, but it's all too little too late.

    Need 80 from 85 balls

    KL Rahul clips a single to take India to 50, before Rohit Sharma advances but has to adapt as he carves it into the leg side for one more.

    Rahul then loosely lofts a drive just over the retreating cover fielders for two.

  18. Ind 49-0published at 5.2 overs

    JJ Smit is on and Rohit Sharma clips a rare single to finally give KL Rahul a bit more strike.

    India are cruising at the moment. It isn't if India will win, it is when they'll win.
