Nigeria to Host T20 Quadrangular Series in 2026
The Nigeria Cricket Federation announced the Nigeria T20 Quadrangular Series, set to take place from September 21 to 27, 2026, at the TBS Cricket Oval in Lagos. Ghana, Sierra Leone, and Nigeria A will compete in this tournament, which aims to deepen Nigeria's cricket calendar.
Nigeria will field two teams, with the Yellow Greens using the series as preparation for upcoming international engagements. The team has been training under new high-performance manager Stephen Mangongo, who was appointed in May 2023 on a three-year contract, replacing Kenyan coach Steve Tikolo.
This series will be Mangongo's second assignment with Nigeria, following the Namibia Tri-Series in June. The T20 Quadrangular Series will also serve as a precursor to the 2028 T20 World Cup Africa Sub-Regional C Qualifier, scheduled for October 18 to 25, 2026, in Abuja, where Nigeria will compete against Gambia, Lesotho, Mozambique, Uganda, and Zambia for two qualifying spots for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2028.
