Defending champions Busoga College Mwiri started their quest for the 21st Boys Cricket Week title with easy wins against Gulu High School and Shree International School.
Mwiri are missing some key players due to the FESSSA games in Morogoro, but they were still good enough to pick up two wins that took them to top spot in Group A.
Ntare School is in second spot in the same group after picking two wins of their own against Kiira College Butiki and Gulu High School.
The top 2 sides in each group will advance to the Super 8, which is the business end of the tournament.
In Group B, St John’s SSS Kauga continue to show their intentions and have maintained their 100% so far in the tournament with a six-wicket win against GoodHeart SS.
The 2025 semifinalists are counting on the experience of U-19 stars Jackson Asiku and Ali Balidawa to get them over the line. Masaka SSS will be their competition for top spot in Group B and the clash between the two tomorrow should decide the group winner.
Newcomer Soroti SSS is on the top step in Group C, but they have former champions Jinja SSS with an interest in progression, while hosts Nyakasura School, in their own backyard, will be interested in winning their first title.
Devansh Patel backed up his reputation as one of the stars of the tournament with a dominant century against Olila High School. Shree Sahajand made the semifinals in 2025, and with the playing field very even this year, they know they have a chance of winning their first title.
The U-19 superstar plundered 11 maximums and 10 boundaries en route to 125 off 57 balls, with his side racking up the highest total of the tournament thus far. It is a clean record of three out of three for the Central Region winners.
Action will continue on Match Day 3 across six different venues in Fort Portal.
