NATIONAL Coach Sam Walusimbi is confident Uganda will advance to the ICC Division I World Cricket league despite missing five stars.

Walusimbi’s team faces United Arab Emirates in a friendly in South Africa today without Patrick Ochan, Jimmy Okello, Charles Waisswa, Hamzah Swalley and Junior Kwebiha.

Uganda will again meet United Arab Emirates in the opening round of the Division II league in Windhoek, Namibia on Saturday.

Walusimbi said before departure that the team he has will measure up to the task without the five players.

“The level of competition is higher than the one in Australia, but the players I have are equally good,” Walusimbi explained.
