With the games continuing to come thick and fast, this is another exciting contest and, dare we say it, another potential upset to look out for. That said, West Indies will come into the match with much of the world backing them and only the real fairy tale believers expecting a victory for the Africans!
The hosts will be well ed at this venue and they have players who have graced some of the top T20 leagues across the world over the last decade and realistically they should have too much for Uganda.
Still, anything can happen in this T20 World Cup!

West Indies have always had flair batters no matter what the decade, the colour of the ball or the format! So it is no surprise that some of their players have prioritised this format of the game and let their big hitting do the talking.
This group of players is led by Rovman Powell who hits the ball far harder than most mere mortals and most top internationals. Nicholas Pooran is West Indies' most talented batter and although he is more of a touch player his timing can be something to behold at times.
With the ball, expect spinner Akeal Hosein to be a threat from the start with the pace of Andre Russell and Alzarri Joseph causing plenty of problems.

No one may be giving them a hope before this match but you can not knock the way Uganda have played in this tournament and they gave neutrals around the world something to cheer when they got their first ever T20 World Cup win in their last match.
Riazat Ali Shah top scored in the victory over PNG and he has looked far stronger than the majority of his team-mates when at the crease. Roger Mukasa is an experienced head at the top of the order but as yet he has not scored a run!
With the ball, look out for Frank Nsubuga who came into the team and produced some brilliant spin bowling in the last match. He's a true star of this World Cup already.

There is a slight risk of rain before the game and in the first few minutes but after that the forecast is for warm and dry weather throughout the match.

This will be a good pitch for cricket with something for the spinners, quick bowlers and for the batters. Whoever bats first will be looking to make a score of at least 165 to be competitive.
The conditions are set to be better for batting as the evening progresses in Providence so our prediction is that both teams will want to bowl first ahead of this match.
West Indies have had many dark moments across this century with their cricket at times seemingly in reverse, however, we are not expecting a new low in this match. With players stronger in every department, we expect West Indies to get an easy victory.
We are backing West Indies to win!
