Kenya and Uganda will be up against each other in the 18th game of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Africa Region Qualifier 2023 on Wednesday, November 29. The Wanderers Cricket Ground in Windhoek will host this contest.

Kenya, captained by Lucas Oluoch, are placed third in the table and have a realistic chance of finishing in the top two and qualifying for the T20 World Cup to be played next year.

They lost to Namibia by six wickets in their previous match. After being asked to bat first, Kenya could only score 104 for six in 20 overs. Namibia chased down the target with 28 balls left in their innings.

Uganda, led by Brian Masaba, are second in the table and a win will take them one step closer to the T20 World Cup. They have six points up their sleeves from four matches with a net run rate of +0.503.

They will go into the match after beating Nigeria by nine wickets last time around. Chasing a small target of 100, Uganda went past the finish line with 15 balls left in their innings.
