At the top level, the teams are receiving greater attention: Williamson
The bad forms that were carried by their star players tormented New Zealand. Players with terrible bat form included Devon Conway, Kane Williamson, Finn Allen, and Daryl Mitchell. Tim Southee’s absence from the opening match against Afghanistan raised concerns about their bowling at the death. Only one wicket was taken by Mitchell Santner in the opening games. Williamson emphasised the significance of Ugandan teams participating in ICC competitions.

“Our boys performed well. was a rough terrain. Little control over concepts and procedures. That changed things. It is preferable to play this style in this match because we witnessed how distinctive it was in the previous one. The teams are developing as a unit as a result of increased exposure at the greatest level. It’s always a terrific experience to learn from to have that exposure. Retraining and playing are required. The same conversations over and over. We’ll relax and play again in a few days. We’ve been sensitive of the conditions,” Williamson stated during the post-game press conference.
