Papua New Guinea (AFG) will take on Uganda (UGA) in Match 09 of the T20 World Cup 2024 at the Providence Stadium in Guyana, on Thursday, June 06 (India time).

Papua New Guinea are on a three-match losing streak, including two warm-up games against Oman and Namibia. Recently as well, they suffered a narrow five-wicket defeat against West Indies in their first group-stage match. Skipper Assad Vala will be hoping that his side takes positives from their last game and come back stronger for their upcoming clash.

On the other hand, Uganda are coming off a disappointing 125-run loss against Rashid Khan’s Afghanistan. Brian Masaba and Co. looked out of place in their recent clash against the Afghan side, failing in both batting and bowling departments. Papua New Guinea and Uganda will both be looking to win the match and get the better of one another. Interestingly, both these sides have faced each other only once in T20Is.

The Providence Stadium has seen a significant advantage for teams chasing in T20I matches. If a similar pitch is prepared for the upcoming match on Thursday, batters from both teams can expect a challenging time, as scoring runs may not be an easy task. The weather will be pleasant throughout the day with the sun out and no sign of rain.
