India U19 are set to lock horns with Uganda U19 in Match 22 of the ICC Under-19 World Cup at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad, on January 22.
India, captained by Nishant Sindhu, have already made their way through to the quarterfinals in the ongoing tournament. The Boys in Blue are currently placed at the top of the table in Group B, with victories in both their games and a handsome net run rate of 2.190.
They will go into their final group game on the back of a 174-run win over Ireland on Wednesday (19 January). Half-centuries from Angkrish Raghuvanshi and Harnoor Singh helped India post 307/5 on the board. Thereafter, the Indian bowlers shot their opponent out for 133 in 39 overs.
Uganda, led by Pascal Murungi, on the contrary, have already been knocked out of the competition. Having lost both their games, Uganda are languishing at the bottom of Group B. South Africa defeated them by 121 runs in their previous match on Tuesday, January 18.
After being asked to field, the Uganda bowlers did an excellent job as the Proteas could only score 231/9. Juma Miyaji and skipper Murungi got three wickets apiece. However, while chasing the target, Uganda were bowled out for 110. Isaac Ategeka top-scored for them with a 29-run knock.
