Preview:

It was an easy task for the hosts Namibia to get over the finishing line in the 1st T20I, as they won by 7 wickets. Merwe Erasmus was the player of the match for his well-made 62* from 36 balls. They are 1-0 up in the series with 2 back-to-back matches to be played on Monday.

Not getting enough runs on the board made Uganda lose the 1st T20I to Namibia. Now they are in a must-win situation to level the series 1-1. Their batting unit will have to fire if they were to win the match and level the series.

NAM vs UGA Top Picks for NAM vs UGA Dream11 Match:

Coming to bat at no. 6, Riazat Ali Shah played some big shots in the death overs, scoring 23 runs from 14 balls, which comprised of one four and two sixes.

Top Picks ­All-Rounders

Jan Nicol Loftie-Eaton initially bowled an economical spell by conceding 20 runs from 4 overs and also picked up a wicket as well. Then in the run-chase, he scored 18 runs from 16 balls.

Dinesh Nakrani didn’t bat well to the expectations but bowled reasonably well with the ball, picking up one wicket at an economy of 7.3 runs per over.

Top Picks ­Bowlers

Ben Shikongo was the pick of the bowlers from Namibia in the 1st T20I, picking up 2 wickets by conceding just 24 runs in his full quota of 4 overs. Overall in his T20I career, he has picked up 9 wickets at an economy of 5.74 runs per over.

Cosmos Kyewuta was a little expensive in the 1st T20I, but picked up the important wicket of Namibia batter Craig Williams.

Top Picks ­Wicketkeepers

Jean-Pierre Kotze didn’t get the runs in the 1st T20I as he got run-out when he was just on 2. But he is one of the most reliable batsmen for Namibia and is expected to score runs in the upcoming matches.

Roger Mukasa gave a good start to Uganda in the 1st T20I, scoring 26 runs from 23 balls. Overall in his T20I career, he has scored 58 runs at an average of 19.33.
