England beat Namibia by 41 runs in a Group B match of the T20 World Cup at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, North Sound, Antigua on Sunday to remain alive in the tournament.

The win took England to five points, as the defending champion went level with Scotland in the standings. The Jos Buttler-led side will now bank on Australia beating Scotland on Sunday.
