Bloomberg reported the comments, citing an October 25 interview Shiimi gave to the Namibian Broadcasting Corporation. Before the ongoing T20 World Cup, names like Gerhard Erasmus, David Wiese, Jan Frylinck, JJ Smit and Bernard Scholtz hardly rang a bell for the common Namibian.

With a father born in Namibia and plenty of relatives still in the country, it was relatively easy to persuade him to make the switch.
