Players to watch out:
Janet Mbabazi
With 797 runs and 60 wickets in the international circuit, Janet is vastly experienced. Her all round abilities act like a double-edged sword and add the extra spark to the lineup. The 27-year-old will look to get started in the tournament and make an impact from the word go by employing her tactical mindset to get the better of the opponent.
Kevin Awino
The vastly experienced batter Awino has amassed 780 runs in the international stage with a high score of 95*. In their first game against White Clouds, she will look to get off to a fantabulous start and set the tone for the matches to come. She also possesses exceptional wicket-keeping abilities, which come to use while playing for Uganda.
Belyse Murekatete
The 19-year-old all-rounder has 139 runs and 32 wickets at the T20I circuit. Her multi-dimensional edge as a player stands out. Going into their first game, she will look to hit the right areas with the ball and restrict batters to a minimal score. With added batting experience, she’ll look to chip in with the bat lower down the order.
Giovannis Uwase
The 18-year-old all-rounder is a fine element in the Gahanga setup. Although she does not have much experience under her belt, this tournament will suit to be an eye-opener for her. In the first game against Sorwathe, she will look to make an impression with her all-round abilities.
Pitch:
A well-balanced track with a slight advantage for the batters. But it’s only a matter of hitting the right lengths for the bowlers and restricting their counterparts to a lower total.
Weather:
Comfortable playing conditions are forecasted, with temperatures hovering around 25 degrees and no possible chance of rain. Although the clouds will be around the corner to ease the temperatures, with no possible chance of rain.
