UGA vs NIG Match Preview
Nigeria's campaign got off to a disappointing start with a 20-run loss against Kenya. While the result didn’t go their way, skipper Sylvester Okpe was outstanding with the ball, taking 4 for 11 and giving his team a real chance. Mohammed Taiwo also stepped up, grabbing 3 wickets as Kenya were bowled out for just 108.
However, Nigeria’s batting didn’t click. The top order struggled, and apart from three players, no one managed to reach double digits, a worrying sign with a tough clash against Uganda coming up. The Ugandan side is flying high, coming into this game on the back of 9 straight wins.
Uganda have a strong core to choose from, with Ronald Lutaaya, Alpesh Ramjani, Pascal Murungi, and Dinesh Nakrani all in excellent form. Any of them would be a solid pick for captain or vice-captain in mega leagues and should be locked into your dream11 fantasy team.
