Dube’s all-round show, scoring 66 with the bat and 2/35 with the ball, along with Varun Chakravarthy’s superb 3/14, extended India’s winning streak to 12 matches in T20 World Cups.
Netherlands captain Scott Edwards won the toss and opted to bowl first, a decision that paid dividends as Namibia were restricted to 156/8 on a slightly tacky surface.
Both openers were dismissed as Pakistan tightened the screws, reducing the Netherlands to 50 for 2 at the end of six overs.
