As of 21 February 2020 |
In April 2018, the International Cricket Council (ICC) granted full Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) status to all its members. Therefore, all Twenty20 matches played between Lesotho women and another international side after 1 July 2018 were a full WT20I.[4]
Lesotho's first WT20I matches were contested as part of the Botswana 7s tournament in August 2018 against Botswana, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Sierra Leone and Zambia however Zambia's matches were not classified as WT20Is as they had a Botswana player in their squad.[5] Lesotho finished bottom of the table, losing all five group matches[6] and lose the fifth place play off against Malawi by a margin of nine wickets.[7]
