Preview – 

Kenya Women will take on Nigeria Women in the 5th Match of the Kwibuka Women’s T20 on Tuesday. In a low-scoring contest, Nigeria is coming into this match after facing a heavy against Namibia in their first match.

Namibia was able to beat Nigeria by a margin of eight wickets to register their first win. Nigeria would be looking to come back but they are facing a strong Kenya team, which is capable of winning and has also started their campaign with a win against Botswana.

 

Pitch Report – 

It will be a challenge for the batters to score runs on this track. Bowlers will have a good time as the ball doesn’t come on the bat nicely enough. A score in excess of 100 would be a match-winning total.
