The Cricket Cranes bounced back from their 1st T20i loss to visitors Bahrain with a commanding performance in the second T20i game, winning by 8 wickets.

In the run chase, Robinson Obuya (28) and Raghav Dhawan (21) continued to develop a relationship at the top of the order as they put on 32 for the first wicket.
Shrideep Mangela (36) had a measured knock that took Uganda close to victory with Dinesh Nakrani and Robinson Obuya knocking off the deficit.
The Cricket Cranes with a comeback victory to level the T20i series, a morale-boosting win for the hosts as they continue their preparations for the Challenge League.
