“The ICC asked for a change in the design but we didn’t have enough time to make the required changes and had to compromise on the winning design. We lost just about 20 percent of the original design, but the rest of the design is the same,” Musali Denis, the Uganda Cricket Association’s public relations officer was quoted as saying by cricket.com.au.
