Nigeria started their campaign with a massive 118-run win against Saint Helena at the University of Lagos Cricket Oval, Lagos on Saturday.

The opening-day win was followed by a record-breaking 264-run victory against Ivory Coast in the 5th match at Tafawa Balewa Square Cricket Oval, Lagos.

Eswatini, meanwhile, will look to revive their campaign with a big scalp today. They lost to Botswana by 48 in the event opener at Tafawa Balewa Square Cricket Oval, Lagos, but bounced back to beat Saint Helena by 48 runs, an interesting margin, in the 6th match. Skipper Adil Butt holds the key for the visitors.

The two top teams will join Kenya, Malawi, Namibia, Tanzania, Uganda and Zimbabwe in the eight-team regional finals. T20 World Cup 2024 finalists South Africa have already qualified for the next 2026 finals.

Focus On Nigeria

Batting first against Saint Helena, Nigeria posted 185/2 thanks to Sulaimon Runsewe's 60 off 51, and unbeaten 40s from Olayinka Olaleye (46 off 36) and Isaac Danladi (48 off 26). Ridwan Abdulkareem then claimed a four-wicket haul (4/13) as Saint Helena got themselves all out for 67 in 19.1 overs.

Captain Isaac Danladi won the toss again, and made the same call. An opening stand of 128 in just 10 overs all but sealed the fate of the match as Selim Salau (112 off 53 retd out) and Sulaimon Runsewe (50 off 29) toyed with the Ivory Coast bowlers. Isaac Okpe hit an unbeaten 65 off 23 as Nigeria posted 271/4.

The Ivory Coast innings lasted a mere 7.3 overs with Danladi and Prosper Useni producing magical spells, 3/2 and 3/0, respectively. Peter Aho claimed a brace without conceding a run, while Sylvester Okpe leaked five runs for a wicket.

Six Ivory Coast batters got ducks, while opener Ouattara Mohamed was the top scorer, 4 off 6. This is the lowest total in the men's T20, beating the previous record of 10 runs set by Mongolia earlier this year and the Isle of Man in 2023.
