Players to watch out for
Roston Chase: The West Indian allrounder is having a great year in T20Is, with 193 runs in seven innings with an average of 48.3 and a strike rate of 142. He has targeted bowlers in the middle overs, batting number four for the Windies.
Moreover, Chase bowls economically across all three game phases and has an economy of just seven, even in the powerplay. He is a no-brainer for your fantasy squad.
Nicholas Pooran: The left-hander is enjoying an excellent run of form this year, scoring over 1000 runs with an exceptional strike rate of 165 and an average of 44.4. He plays in the same manner irrespective of the situation and has great numbers against both pace and spin.
Alpesh Ramjani: The left-arm spinner has 13 wickets in six T20Is this year, giving only 4.3 runs per over. He is the key bowler of Uganda and deserves to be on your fantasy team for the game.
Key battles
Frank Nsubuga vs Roston Chase
Nsubuga bowled the most economical spell of T20 World Cup history in the last game when he earned figures of 4-2-4-2 against Papua New Guinea and took his team to victory. Chase has great numbers against off-spin (he’s mostly poor against kinds of spin), and Nsubuga might be under pressure bowling to his fellow off-spinner.
