The second ODI between Namibia and Uganda is all set to take place at the Wanderers Cricket Ground in Windhoek on Thursday.
Namibia whitewashed Uganda 3-0 in the T20I series and followed it up with a comprehensive 98-run victory in the first ODI.
Batting first, Namibia posted a massive total of 301 runs, largely due to major contributions from their lower middle-order. JJ Smit smashed the Uganda bowlers all over the park and ended up scoring 81 runs off just 56 balls. Michael Van Lingen also chipped in with a brilliant 45-ball 56. Henry Ssenyondo and Riazat Ali Shah each took two wickets but couldn't restrict Namibia from crossing the 300-run mark.
In reply, Uganda didn’t have the greatest of starts as they lost their top three batsmen under 10 runs. Although Ronak Patel hammered an excellent century, it went in vain as he didn't receive any support. Ruben Trumpelmann managed a five-wicket haul to restrict Uganda to just 203. Namibia will start the second and final ODI as clear favorites.
