Namibia has spectacularly sealed their spot in the T20 World Cup 2024 by displaying exceptional skill and determination in the African qualifying rounds.


Namibia dominates African Qualifiers to reach T20 World Cup 2024

Their latest victory, a 58-run win over Tanzania in Windhoek, marked their fifth consecutive win that consolidated their top position in the standings with an unbeaten record. This impressive feat was achieved through victories over strong contenders including Zimbabwe, Uganda, Rwanda, and Kenya.

This accomplishment ensures Namibia's top-two finish in the qualifiers, confirming their participation in the next year's prestigious 20-team tournament, which will be hosted by the United States and the West Indies.


It also marks a significant milestone for Namibia, as it will be their third consecutive appearance in the T20 World Cup. Their journey in this tournament has been a rollercoaster, with a notable progression to the Super 12 stage in their first appearance in the UAE in 2021, followed by an early exit in the group stage in Australia the subsequent year.

The battle for the remaining African qualifying spot is intense, with Uganda, Kenya, and Zimbabwe all in contention to join Namibia in the global event. The upcoming matches, especially Uganda's clash with Kenya will be crucial in determining the second qualifier. Zimbabwe and Nigeria, meanwhile, are reliant on favourable outcomes in the other matches to keep their hopes alive.

Moreover, Namibia is also gearing up to co-host the World Cup in 2027 alongside South Africa and Zimbabwe. The Eagles are set to conclude their group campaign against Nigeria, aiming to extend their winning streak.
