THE PREDICTION

Group B heavy hitters India and South Africa face each other in the opening round of games, meaning that both Ireland and Uganda will see this is a massive opportunity to get points on the board early on, giving themselves a genuine chance of qualification to the next round. Uganda are embarking in just their third Under-19 World Cup compared to Ireland’s ninth in comparison. The awarding of Test match status to Ireland back in 2017 has benefitted them with all the extra exposure helping to encourage the next generation and they showed during the European qualifiers that there is plenty of cause for optimism. Although rain could disrupt this encounter, Ireland should wind up strong enough to overcome Uganda, provided the weather plays ball.
