The girls showed resilience, which is the true Nigerian spirit, and patriotism to upset cricket giant New Zealand,” Olopade remarked. This was contained in a press statement by the special adviser on media to the office of the Director General NSC, Kola Daniel


He also highlighted the role of the Nigeria Cricket Federation, led by President Uyi Akpata, in elevating the sport in the country. “The result is a testament to the kind of job the Nigeria Cricket Federation has been doing. This is why the National Sports Commission, under the Chairmanship of Mallam Shehu Dikko, will continue to be very supportive of the Federation,” he added.


Olopade urged the team to stay focused and use this victory as a springboard for greater achievements. “I am confident our girls can go all the way and shock the entire cricket world after the display they put up against New Zealand. Once again, congratulations to the team.”


The win places Nigeria at the top of Group C standings, positioning them as strong contenders for the title. With the world now watching, the Junior Female Yellow Greens have an opportunity to redefine Nigeria’s cricketing legacy.
