Fazilah Ikwaput: The forward will be the best pick from Uganda this evening. She will be leading the attack and could get on the scoresheet easily.

Fauziah Najjemba: The differential captaincy pick of the day has to be Fauziah Najjemba, as she will be making a lot of runs into the box. The Uganda star could be the one fetching maximum points today.
