Stanley Carson Shines with Five-Wicket Haul in Ghana’s Win Over Sierra Leone

Ghana’s Stanley Carson was named Player of the Match after a superb bowling performance helped sink Sierra Leone in the sides’ ICC U19 Men’s Cricket World Cup Africa Qualifier Division 2 opener.

Carson bowled 10 overs, including a maiden, conceding just 28 runs while picking up 5 wickets — figures that broke through Sierra Leone’s batting line-up and set up Ghana’s 130-run victory.

The young pacer was presented with his award on the sidelines of the Gahanga/RP-Kigali venue, a strong start to the tournament for both player and team as Ghana look to carry the momentum into their next fixture against Nigeria.
