Sierra Leone Women will take on Cameroon Women in the World T20 qualifiers on Wednesday. Both sides are winless after three games of the qualifiers.

Cameroon are making their debut in ICC tournaments, having lost their tournament-opener to Uganda by 155 runs. In that game, they were bowled out for just 35 runs while chasing 191 runs.

In their second fixture, Cameroon lost by ten wickets to Nigeria, who chased down a paltry 48-run target without losing a wicket. Cameroon then took on a formidable Namibian side in their third encounter, which they lost by eight wickets.

Meanwhile, Sierra Leone, like Cameroon, have also lost their first three fixtures. They took on Nigeria in their first match of the tournament. They put up a decent performance, but lost by five wickets.

In their second fixture, they took on Namibia, and were handed their second defeat of the tournament, as they failed to overhaul at 144-run target. Against Uganda in their third fixture, they succumbed by nine wickets while defending a modest total of 87 runs.

Both teams seem to be down and out heading into this fixture. However, both teams will look forward to the opportunity of winning their first game of the tournament.
