Raymond van Schoor , though he was bowled out by young Kenyan bowlerElijah Otieno . The Namibian team were to improve on this early form, coming back with wins over the other two teams in their pool, with Silver making a century in the final preliminary match against Ghana, thus leading Namibia into the semi-finals.Silver continued his impressive form in the semi-finals, once again scoring a century against Uganda, and completing a 168-run opening partnership with van Schoor, whose father Melt retired from cricket in 2005. Silver hit a half-century in the final to assist Namibia to a win in the tournament.
Having had such good form in the youth competition, it was only a matter of time before he stepped up to play for the senior team, for whom he made his first-class debut on October 18, 2007, in a three-day match.
