The ICC T20 World Cup Africa Qualifiers kick off on October 16. The fourth match of the tournament will see Ghana lock horns with the Seychelles at the Integrated Polytechnic Regional Centre in Kigali, Rwanda.
Ghana toured Rwanda for a five-match T20I series in August this year, which they won by a 3-2 margin. It was a closely-fought series with Ghana coming out on top. Everyone stepped up for them and will look to be at their best in the upcoming Africa Qualifiers.
Amoluk Singh finished as the highest run-scorer in the series. He scored 219 runs in five games at an impressive average of 54.75, smashing two half-centuries in the process. Obed Harvey was good with the ball, picking up seven wickets in five games. They will play a major role for Ghana in the Qualifiers.
The Seychelles, meanwhile, were granted T20I status in April 2018 by the ICC. The Seychelles National Cricket Team represents the island nation of Seychelles. The nation became an associate member in 2017 and it will be the first T20I it will play since becoming an associate member of the ICC.
It will be interesting to see how the team copes with the pressure of playing at the highest level. The players will be excited to grab this opportunity to showcase their skills.
