Preview

Uganda (UGA) will take on Ghana (GHA) in the second game of the African Games T20 tournament. It has been a whirlwind start to the tournament as South Africa, in particular, played like true champions. Ghana didn’t have a great start, as the hosts could only see the South African batter cause carnage with the bat.

Uganda (UGA) began the tournament with a massive win over Kenya to show their rising status in World Cricket. The 72-run win was possible because of the fantastic bowling resources that Uganda have at their disposal.

Ghana (GHA) saw their inexperience come into play against the South African side. The bowlers were smashed to all parts of the ground. With the bat, none of the Ghana players could put up a decent total on the board.

Pitch Report

The match between hosts Ghana and Uganda is set to be held at the Achimota Senior Secondary School B Field in Accra. The small boundaries mean that there will be runs on offer for both sides. The team that wins the toss will want to bat first and make the bowling teamwork in the hot conditions. Chasing again will be difficult, but one expects the chasing sides to come well-prepared this time around.

Alpesh Ramjani UGA | ALL

The 29-year-old left-arm spinner was the best bowler for Uganda during their huge win against Kenya on Sunday. With figures of 4/17 from his 3.4 overs Alpesh Ramjani was the biggest difference maker of the day. His ability to bowl variations and beat batters in flight had the Kenyans in a huge spot of bother.

Dinesh Nakrani UGA | ALL

Uganda’s innings got a huge push towards the back end thanks to the aggressive hitting by Dinesh Nakrani. The 32-year-old scored 43 runs from just 23 balls aided with 3 fours and equal number of sixes. The batter who is originally from Kutch gave good impetus to the Uganda innings and helped it end on a high.

Godfred Bakiweyem

GHANA | BAT

Considered one of the most reliable pacers in the Ghana side, the 25-year-old was hit for 46 runs from his 4 overs. Bakiweyem is the most experienced bowler in the team but his reputation was taken to the cleaners by the South African batters.

Cyrus Kakuru

UGA | WK

The Uganda skipper was left in the shadows as his team rose to the occasion with the bat and ball. 32-year-old Masaba could only score 9 runs from 6 balls while he didn’t even turn up to bowl. It was an underwhelming performance by the skipper who has years of experience which has seen him play 56 games for his national side.
