Uganda on Thursday made history as they qualified for the T20 World Cup for the first time ever. They beat Rwanda by 9 wickets in their final game of the Africa region qualifiers.

Namibia had earlier became the first team from the competition to clinch one of the two available spots for qualification. As a result, Zimbabwe failed to make it to T20 World Cup 2024.

Zimbabwe still had an outside chance of qualifying. They needed to win their last qualifier against Kenya by a good margin, which they did. They were also dependet on Uganda's result and could have gone through had Uganda lost, which didn't happen.

The next edition of the T20 World Cup is scheduled to be held in the West Indies and the USA in 2024.
