Basketball fever is high in the African continent with the beginning of FIBA AfroBasket. In this encounter, the Cameroonian men are going to take on South Sudan as a part of the Group D battle in Kigali, which is in Rwanda. More about CMR vs SUD Dream 11 will be given below.
Cameroon qualified for the AfroBasket after winning four out of six games in the Qualification window. Cameroon is ranked sixty-third in the FIBA rankings while South Sudan is ninety-four. The Cameroonian squad has been playing some inspirational basketball as of late and has a lot of scoring, rebounding, and playmaking options in the team. Meanwhile, South Sudan has shown some struggles while scoring which can prove fatal against high-scoring Cameroon. South Sudan’s strong suit is rebounding and they ranked second in the category during the Qualifying stage. Turnovers also have been a huge issue for the Sudanese men and they would need to cut down on them against a team that can easily take advantage of lapses. Cameroon has the edge in this match-up but they’d have to be careful with the battle on the boards.
Match Timing: 25 August, @ 06:30 PM Venue: Kigali Arena
