This victory propels Australia to the top of the standings with two points. Although Namibia also have two points, Australia leads the table due to their superior net run rate. They will take on England on Saturday in Barbados.
Meanwhile, Oman is still searching for their first win and will clash against Scotland on Thursday in Barbados.
