Namibia vs Uganda, 1st T20I: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast, and Live Streaming Details
Namibia are set to take on Uganda in the first T20I at the United Cricket Club Ground, Windhoek.
Namibia's recent performance has been a mixed bag. Last month, they engaged in an unofficial five-match ODI series against Karnataka, which ended in a 3-2 defeat for Namibia. However, they managed to salvage some pride by winning the last game against Karnataka by five wickets. All eyes will be on their skipper, Gerhard Erasmus, as he leads the team's charge and looks to inspire his teammates.
This tour holds great importance for Uganda as they aim to perform well and climb up the rankings. Their recent victory in the final of the Africa Continental Cup against Kenya has provided them with a boost in confidence. It was a nail-biting encounter, with Uganda emerging victorious by just one run.
Uganda will be eager to carry that momentum into this series and make a strong statement against Namibia.
