West Indies captain Rovman Powell won the toss and decided to bat first in match 18 of ICC T20 World Cup 2024 on Sunday (June 9). The game is being played at the Providence Stadium in Guyana, West Indies. (Match Blog | Streaming | Scorecard)

Explaining the reasoning behind his decision, Powell said: "Looks like a typical Guyana wicket - low and slow. Hopefully we can put some runs on the board and defend it. It's still a wicket where you got to play good cricket shots. 110-120 is not defendable."

He added: "Once we improve in all three departments, we should be good. Last few days we did some training and resting." West Indies are going in with an unchanged XI as their previous game against PNG. Uganda, too, are unchanged from their last match against PNG.

BY Stats Perform

This is the third match of the tournament for Uganda, who have garnered one win (over Papua New Guinea) and one loss (against Afghanistan), and face a must-win scenario today if they are to qualify for the Super 8s.

Their Group C rivals West Indies won their opening clash against PNG, which means Rovman Powell's side comes into this game without the worries of elimination hanging over their heads just yet. Afghanistan currently lead the group with two wins out of as many matches, on the back of their stunning triumph against New Zealand.
