Fortuin cited dropped catches as a concern despite strong performances from Lhuan-dre Pretorius and Dewald Brevis. Fortuin took career-best figures of 4/24 against Zimbabwe, with Duan Jansen adding 3/21. He emphasized the team prioritizes wins over individual achievements and wants a strong showing against Namibia to build confidence.
