It wouldn't surprise me if Uganda make a game of this.

 

[Around the Wicket]

Wow.. I thought Russell was a better bowler then those stats suggest.

We could see Pakistan, England and New Zealand all fail to progress out the Group stage LMAO.

Sri Lanka basically gone as well, but they’re nothing compared to what they used to be

yea forgot about them but like you said they were in a tough group, Bangladesh is probably on par with them these days if not a tad better.

might be reasonable considering he's more of an 'impact bowler' rather than a frontline bowler

 

[akkaps]

windies probably have enough runs. But I would have thought they’d try to score as many as possible in a game like this

Tough Pitch it seems, Windies will win this by 70+ runs.

 

[corbies]

Pretty sure Kyewuta and Miyagi both chuck it.

5/173 seems like more than enough. But Uganda have nothing to lose by having a go.

 

[NYRB]

The neutrals would like to see Uganada if this a good go.

 

[NYRB]

Id imagine Hosein bowls at least 3 overs of the powerplay here against Uganda.

 

[Around the Wicket]

Uganda just go for a slog and hope for the best.

 

[Cleavy]

2/10 off 2 overs. ah!

 

[NYRB]

Uganda just go for a slog and hope for the best.

I think with their talent level in batting, its their best hope. Dont think having a look for an over or 2 is the way to go for them.

 

[Around the Wicket]

Worrying the umpire thought about that for so long, as plum as it gets.

Joel Wilson would have given it not out

 

[Gough]

Played totally down the wrong line.

8/25

5/173 (20)
39 (12.0)

It's probably what's to be expected from by far the lowest skilled team at this tournament but at they have that win against PNG after all.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Just a reminder that Zimbabwe failed to qualify ahead of Uganda.

Paints a sad picture for them.

Im thinking Zimbabwe maybe had a 1 off day.

Zimbabwes performances at 2022 World Cup was alright.

 

[ioppolo]

Zimbabwe have a knack of losing to lesser opposition when there's something on the line. They lost to the UAE at home in the 2019 WC qualifiers which cost them a spot.

Also Scotland at home for the 2023 WC qualifiers. Definitely some mental demons in that squad.
