New Zealand are all set to face Uganda in the 32nd match of the T20 World Cup 2024 on June 15th at 6:00 AM IST at the Brian Lara Stadium in Trinidad.
New Zealand has had a disappointing run in the tournament, having been shockingly eliminated in the group stage. They have played two games and lost both, but they will look to gain some momentum against Uganda. Uganda, on a similar journey, has lost two of their three games and are now playing for pride after being eliminated from the tournament.
The pitch at the Brian Lara Stadium in Trinidad is likely to be good for batting, but pacers could find some movement with the new ball. The outfield is typically fast, which helps with boundary-hitting. Bowlers might struggle to get movement off the pitch, but variations in pace and spin can be effective in restricting run-scoring.
The recent T20 World Cup matches have revealed a Balanced wicket.
