WI vs UGA Top Captain and Vice-captain Picks
Scenario: If West Indies Field First
Andre Russell (WI): Andre Russell, the bowling all-rounder showed all of his experience by picking up wickets with a cross seamed delivery and a yorker in the first game. The destructive batsman also contribute well with the bat while chasing which makes him a prime C/VC option for this game.
Alzarri Joseph (WI): Alzarri Joseph picked up two wickets in their opening game of T20 World Cup. If West Indies bowl first then he will try to put Uganda early pressure by picking-up wickets in powerplay.
Scenario: If Uganda Field First
Cosmas Kyewuta (UGA): Medium pacer Cosmas Kyewuta has four wickets in the tournament already and he is worth backing as Uganda's top wicket taker in this game. He is a great fit for this category.
Nicholas Pooran (WI): Nicholas Pooran is one of the most talented batters in the tournament and the left-handed 28 year old had already hit two sixes before he was dismissed for 27 against PNG in the last match, and he will be a good pick for the C/VC option for this game.
WI vs UGA High Risk, High Rewards
Brandon King (WI): The opener will always look to take the attack to the opposition bowlers and this will be no different after he made 34 runs from 29 balls. His form in the last match and his inconsistency makes him a risky but worthy choice.
Alpesh Ramjani (UGA): Alpesh Ramjani is one of the best all-rounder of Uganda, so far in three matches he picked three wickets and scored eight runs. His all-round ability make him a ideal choice for this category.
WI vs UGA Stay Aways
Dinesh Nakrani (UGA): Dinesh Nakrani scored only six runs in their opening match, and scored zero runs in the last match. Considering his recent form he could well be avoided for this fixture.
