Wanderers and Aziz Damani were winners on the opening weekend of the national women’s T20 league setting themselves up for the title.
The second weekend (Saturday) will have pace setters Aziz Damani taking on Soroti Challengers at the Lakeside Oval in Entebbe, Wanderers will be taking on Olila Cricket Club at Lugogo and Tornado Bee take on Pioneer in Kyambogo.
Pioneer Cricket Club lost to Wanderers on the opening weekend while Tornado Bee fell on the Aziz Damani sword. Both sides will look at correcting their wrongs to make sure they can get off the mark for the season.
Wanderers relied on the two Bangladesh imports Shohaly Akther and Farjana Boby on the opening weekend and wins against Olila Cricket Club will keep them in hunt of their maiden T20 title.
