New Zealand for the first time in the history of the T20 World Cup failed to qualify for the second round of the competition. With two defeats to their name, the Kane Williamson-led side is officially out of the tournament but will aim to finish well and give their fans some joy. They are slated to face Uganda on June 15 at Brian Lara Stadium in Trinidad, who are out of the race as well but won’t shy away from causing an upset.

New Zealand batters have failed to deliver in the ongoing tournament, which led to their downfall. In the last match, Glenn Phillips made 40 runs off 33 deliveries and tried to get the job done but West Indies eventually picked up a 13-run win. The skipper himself is going through a rough patch as some of his decisions too received a lot of criticism. 

Uganda, on the other hand, were thrashed in their matches against Afghanistan and West Indies. New Zealand won’t be an easy opponent either but Uganda have nothing to lose and should go all-out.

Match Details:

Brian Lara Stadium, Trinidad Pitch Report 

The pitch at the Brian Lara Stadium in Trinidad is known for its sluggish nature. The spinners will get a lot of advantage, which can decide the fate of the game. Bowling first will be ideal and anything over 160 runs will be a good total.

NZ vs UGA Head-to-Head

New Zealand and Uganda will lock horns for the first time in international cricket.

NZ vs UGA Probable Playing XIs

New Zealand (NZ):

Finn Allen, Devon Conway (wk), Kane Williamson (c), Michael Bracewell, Daryl Mitchell, Glenn Philips, Mark Chapman, Trent Boult, Lockie Ferguson, Mitchell Santner, Matt Henry

Uganda (UGA):

Roger Mukasa, Simon Ssesazi (wk), Robinson Obuya, Riazat Ali Shah, Alpesh Ramjani, Dinesh Nakrani, Juma Miyagi, Kenneth Waiswa, Brian Masaba (c), Cosmas Kyewuta, Frank Nsubuga

NZ vs UGA Probable Best Players of the Match

Probable Best Batter of the Match:

Flamboyant batter Glenn Phillips had a very good time in the middle in the last match. He would fancy to continue with the same form and help New Zealand win their first game in the tournament. He is a very good player of spin and can make a difference against a reasonably weak bowling attack of Uganda.

Probable Best Bowler of the Match:

Trent Boult with the new ball can prove to be extremely dangerous. He picked up three wickets in the last match and will aim to repeat the same against Uganda. The Brian Masaba-led side don’t have enough experience and it would be difficult for them to face the wrath of Boult.
