History

Nigeria made its international debut at the 2011 ICC Africa Women's T20 Tournament in Uganda.[4] The team lost their first game, against Kenya, by ten wickets,[5] but rebounded to win their next match, against Sierra Leone, by six wickets.[6] They lost their remaining three matches (against Namibia, Tanzania, and Uganda), however, finishing fifth out of six teams overall.[7] In August 2015 Nigeria appeared in an invitation tournament in Dar es Salaam, which featured the Tanzanian national team and a team from India's Mumbai Cricket Association.[8]

In April 2018, the ICC granted full Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) status to all its members. Therefore, all Twenty20 matches played between Nigeria women and another international side since 1 July 2018 have the WT20I status.[9] Nigeria made its Twenty20 International debut against Rwanda at Abuja on 26 January 2019. The teams played a five-game series with Nigeria winning by 3-2.[10]

In December 2020, the ICC announced the qualification pathway for the 2023 ICC Women's T20 World Cup.[11] Nigeria were named in the 2021 ICC Women's T20 World Cup Africa Qualifier regional group, alongside ten other teams.[12]
