Rashid Khan will lead the Afghan charge, with key players like Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Mohammad Nabi, and Mujeeb Ur Rahman expected to be vital contributors.
On the other hand, Uganda, making their maiden World Cup appearance, will rely heavily on Riazat Ali Shah, Alpesh Ramjani, and Dinesh Nakrani to put up a strong performance.
As both teams prepare for an exciting clash, let’s take a look at the pitch conditions in Guyana.
Providence Stadium Guyana Pitch Report
The surface at Providence Stadium in Guyana is expected to be sluggish, making it challenging for batters to score runs. While there will be minimal lateral movement with the new ball, the two-paced nature of the pitch may favor bowlers slightly more.
The ball might hold up a bit, making it difficult for batters to time their shots and hit through the line. Spinners will also play a significant role, as the pitch offers considerable turn throughout the day.
Given that it’s an evening game and rain could be a factor, the team winning the toss might prefer to bowl first.
