Nigeria batted first and posted 146 for 5 in 20 overs. Ghana were bowled out for 55 in 13 overs, chasing 147.
It was Nigeria’s second win over Ghana in the tournament. On 21 September the YellowGreens chased 92 in 13 overs after Ghana made 91 for 9. Saturday’s margin was far larger.
The series also features Nigeria A and Sierra Leone. Nigeria had beaten Nigeria A by two wickets on Friday, chasing 113. Sierra Leone beat Ghana by 13 runs on DLS in a rain-shortened game the same day.
Captain Chima Akachukwu leads a side that includes Ali Rahmon, Isaac Danladi, Vincent Adewoye, Ridwan Abdulkareem and Miracle Akhigbe. Ghana are captained by Obed Harvey.
Sunday’s remaining group fixtures include Nigeria A v Ghana and Nigeria v Sierra Leone. The YellowGreens close Match 10 with the heaviest win of the week so far and clear daylight between their total and Ghana’s reply.
