THE PREDICTION

Despite being edged out by United Arab Emirates in their Plate quarter-final, Uganda can take plenty of positives from their performance despite an agonising one-wicket defeat. A clash with Papua New Guinea represents a perfect chance for them to gain a victory against a side who have also lost all four of their games played. Papua New Guinea have been bowled up for just double figures three times and of their four defeats, three have come via a margin of over 100 runs whilst the other was by nine wickets. Although this should prove a closer affair against an opponent closer to PNG in terms of skill-gap, Uganda are the nation expected to emerge victorious.
