Preview: For the first time in the competition’s history, New Zealand was unable to advance to the next round. Having suffered two losses, the Kane Williamson-led team is now officially eliminated from the competition, but they still want to do well and cheer on their supporters. On June 15, they are scheduled to play Uganda at Brian Lara Stadium in Trinidad. Uganda is also eliminated from the competition, but they are not afraid to cause an upset.
Conversely, Uganda’s games against Afghanistan and the West Indies ended in crushing defeats. Uganda has nothing to lose and should give it their all against New Zealand, who won’t be an easy opponent either.
