And by the look of things, Gerald Olipa, the opening batsman, is settling in well; he put up a 50 unbeaten.
"I am very proud to score 50 on my debut from U-19, it's a great experience even though it's scorching in India, and the wicket is kind of slow," Olipa said.
"We hope to get more skills and experience here (in India) as we prepare for the Cricket World Cup qualifiers," he added.
Joshua Baguma also put on a show, picking up (6/27), while Ali Balidawa added (3/16), an improved performance from the three-wicket win in the first game.
