The gaffer’s squad has the Malta Guinness Women’s Premier League second top scorer in Mary Amponsah, while Faith Ladies Maafia Nyame, Faiza Seidu and a host of other good players but Basigi says that would give him no problems in selecting his starting team.

“I am cool with [selection headache] because when you have good players it even calms your nerves,” the Black Princesses boss told Joy Sports.

“When your bench is rich that is where I think you can even make your best decisions in terms of selection.”

The Princesses begin their WAFU Zone B campaign against Benin, who they have been drawn together with in Group A alongside Ivory Coast.
