Nigeria’s Junior Female YellowGreens opened their ICC U19 Women’s T20 World Cup Africa Qualifier campaign on a winning note after defeating Uganda U19 Women by four wickets in a low-scoring encounter in Tanzania on Sunday, BSNSports.com.ng reports. ‎ ‎

Uganda struggled to build momentum with the bat, posting 57 runs for seven wickets in their allotted 20 overs. ‎ ‎ ‎

Nigeria responded confidently, reaching 60 for six in 13.1 overs to secure a four-wicket victory and start their qualification campaign with maximum points. ‎ ‎ ‎

The Junior Female YellowGreens will now look to build on the impressive opening-day result as they continue their quest to secure a place at the ICC U19 Women’s T20 World Cup. ‎
