Ghana finished as runners-up after winning four of their five matches, including victories over Seychelles, Malawi, Saint Helena, and Eswatini, demonstrating consistency with both bat and ball.
Tanzania, however, dominated the tournament with an unbeaten run, recording emphatic wins against Eswatini, Seychelles, and Saint Helena to top the standings.

The tournament concluded with players and officials from all six nations gathering to celebrate sporting excellence and Ghana’s successful hosting of the event.
