Namibia will face Uganda in the first ODI of the Uganda tour of Namibia 2026, which will be played at the Namibia Cricket Ground in Windhoek. Namibia emerged victorious in the T20I series 2-1. They won the last match by 98 runs. Captain Gerhard Erasmus' elite all-round abilities and Ruben Trumpelmann's pace are key to their success.

On the other hand, Uganda is coming for the first ODI looking to rectify a collective batting failure that saw them bundled out for just 71 in their last T20I. Simon Ssesazi's explosive opening and Riazat Ali Shah's tactical leadership make the squad still dangerous despite the setback.
