The West Indies cricket team is all set to lock horns against Uganda in the 18th game of the 2024 T20 World Cup, which is slated to take place on June 9 at Providence Stadium in Guyana. The West Indies and Uganda both have one win in the ongoing marquee event, and both will be aiming to get their second win in the marquee event in the next game.
However, the two-time World Cup winner, the West Indies, holds a great chance to win the next game owing to their home soil conditions. In the same vein, here are the top 3 West Indies players to watch out for in their clash against Uganda in the 2024 T20 World Cup.
1. Nicholas Pooran
West Indies star cricketer Nicholas Pooran places himself at the top spot on the list to watch out for in the next game. The great cricketer ended his IPL 2024 campaign with nearly 500 runs and a solid strike rate of 179. The power hitter can single-handedly destroy Uganda’s bowlers in the game as well as guide his team to win the game magnificently.
2. Andre Russell
The two-time World Cup winner is also on the list to watch out for in the next game. Russell holds a formidable aura in the game’s shortest format. He has played around 500 T20 matches, and his great T20 career has glittered over 8000 runs with a solid strike rate of 170 and 450 wickets to his name. His unyielding quest for T20 glory, overall reputation, and recent form make him one of the Windies to watch out for in their next game against Uganda.
3. Shimron Hetmyer
The star cricketer is one of the best power hitters from Windies Camp and can single-handedly destroy Uganda’s camp in the next game. The Guyana-born cricketer is well aware of his home-side conditions and can single-handedly boost the middle and lower orders of the game.
The star batter will be looking to take centre stage in the next game in front of his home crowd. The great cricketer was magnificent in the recently concluded IPL 2024 and guided his side to reach the playoffs of the marquee event.
