Coming into the match, Rudi van Vuuren had the unique distinction of being the only man to have appeared in two World Cups - those of rugby and cricket. To this, he added the achievement of becoming the first Namibian bowler to claim a five-for in ODIs. Bowling his medium-pacers, van Vuuren went on to claim 5/43 off 10 overs while helping his side bowl England out for 272.
