Preview
West Indies will face-off against Uganda in the Group C match of the T20 World Cup 2024 in Providence Stadium in Guyana. In their tournament opener, the co-hosts West Indies had a scare against Papua New Guinea (PNG), but they managed to get across the finishing line at the end. Meanwhile, after losing against Afghanistan in their opening match, Uganda got the better of PNG in a low-scoring thriller, showcasing that they belong to the T20 World Cup level in their first appearance.
Toss Prediction
In their last four T20I matches, West Indies have won two tosses, while Uganda have gotten it right three times. With that, there is a greater chance of the Uganda captain, Brian Masaba, calling toss right in comparison to his West Indies counterpart Rovman Powell.
Win Possibility
West Indies were far from their best with the bat and ball in their T20 World Cup 2024 opener, but they found a way to win, thanks to an impressive unbeaten innings from Roston Chase , while chasing down the 137-run target. Alzarri Joseph and Akeal Hosein were quite impressive with the ball for the Caribbean team.
Uganda legend Frank Nsubuga, Brian Masaba, Juma Miyagi, Alpesh Ramjani, and Riazat Ali Shah were the chief architects of the first win for the national team in the T20 World Cup 2024 against Papua New Guinea. After bundling out PNG for just 77 runs, the Uganda batting lineup had a massive struggle in the run chase, but they ultimately found a way to win.
Although, the difference in class of players makes West Indies the firm favourites to defeat Uganda in their T20 World Cup 2024 clash.
Predicted powerplay score and first innings score
The pitches at the Providence Stadium in Guyana have been quite conducive for the bowlers in the T20 World Cup 2024 thus far, making it difficult for the batting lineups to get up to above par totals. In the upcoming match between West Indies and Uganda, if the hosts don’t bat first, a low-scoring match is definitely on the cards. Notably, the average first innings score is 129 at this venue in T20Is, while the first innings score in the upcoming match could range between 165-175. The powerplay score could go up to 45-50.
