Cricket fans were treated to another thrilling encounter on Saturday
Cricket fans were treated to another thrilling encounter on Saturday, June 14, 2025, as the second match of the Women’s T20 Friendly Series unfolded at the Achimota Cricket Grounds in Accra.
In a bid to bounce back from their opening loss, Accra Daisies won the toss and chose to bat first. Displaying more grit and determination than in their previous outing, they posted a respectable total of 96 runs for the loss of 8 wickets in their allotted 20 overs. Improved shot selection and smarter running between the wickets were evident in their performance.
Accra Lilies, however, began their chase on a shaky note, losing early wickets and briefly falling behind the required run rate. Nonetheless, their middle-order batters stepped up with crucial partnerships that steadied the innings.
The Lilies ultimately chased down the target, scoring 97 for 8 in 18.1 overs, sealing a narrow but hard-fought victory.
With this result, the Accra Lilies now hold a 2–0 lead in the series, securing back-to-back wins in the women’s cricket showcase.
