Uganda Team News & Playing 11
UGA Team News
Uganda will be led by Brian Masaba for this series, though Roger Mukasa and Arnold Otwani, who have also both captained the team recently, are still in the team and still likely to form the opening partnership.
UGA Key Players
Frank Nsubuga: One of the few leading players from Uganda’s success in the ICC Cricket World Cup Challenge League fixtures (in ODI cricket) to be selected in this squad. He took seven wickets in that series.
Arnold Otwani: Took four catches behind the stumps in his most recent international to confirm his glovework. He is looking for his first T20i half-century but he can set the tempo at the top of the order.
Brian Masaba: An all-rounder capable of pace or leg-spin with the ball and who proved his batting and bowling quality with some important performances in each in the recent Cricket World Cup Challenge League fixtures.
UGA Team Form
Uganda failed to advance from a rain-affected from a rain-affected ICC T20 World Cup Qualifier – Africas Region group. Since their T20i disappointment, however, they have returned to good form internationally – in December, they won all five of their inaugural matches at the ICC Cricket World Cup Challenge League Group B.
Uganda Predicted Playing 11
Roger Mukasa, Arnold Otwani (wk), Zephania Arinaitwe, Deusdedit Muhumza, Kenneth Waiswa, Charles Waiswa, Frank Nsubuga, Henry Ssenyondo, Fred Achelam, Brian Masaba (c), Richard Agamire
