Uganda will need all their players fully fit and in top form, knowing that a win from this fixture will greatly improve their chances of proceeding to the semi finals of this tournament, for the first time in history.

In a brief post match interview on Monday, She Cranes captain Peace Proscovia said that today’s opponents will not be a walk over, since they last won them a nearly a decade ago. South Africa is still unbeaten in this edition’s Netball World Cup, but the She Cranes, being the current African Netball champions are confident they can get a positive result out of this fixture.

All eyes on them tonight, as we wish our ladies the best of luck tonight to keep flying the Ugandan flag high.
