Preview

Get ready for an intense showdown between Ghana (GHA) and Sierra Leone (SIL) in the 3rd Place Play-off of the West Africa T20I Trophy 2023, set to unfold at the Tafawa Balewa Square Cricket Oval in Nigeria. Ghana holds a dominant 3-0 lead in head-to-head clashes against Sierra Leone in this tournament, indicating a track record of success. In their recent league encounter, Ghana clinched a hard-fought victory, edging out Sierra Leone by a mere five runs.

In this crucial match, Ghana opted to bat first. While they managed to establish decent partnerships early on, Sierra Leone's Miniru Kpaka proved to be a thorn in their side, securing three vital wickets. Ghana ultimately posted a total of 112 runs in their allotted 20 overs, with Rexford Bakum contributing a valuable 30 runs.

Sierra Leone's response witnessed commendable efforts, particularly from George Ngegba and Lansana Lamin, who forged a promising 41-run partnership. However, they faced challenges in accelerating the scoring rate, ultimately culminating in a total of 107 runs for the loss of 6 wickets in their 20 overs. Ghana's Godfred Bakiweyem played a pivotal role, claiming two crucial wickets.
