The 2022 Kwibuka Women's T20 Tournament was a women's T20I (WT20I) cricket tournament that was held in Rwanda from 9 to 18 June 2022. [1] This was the eighth edition of the annual Kwibuka T20 Tournament, [2] first played in 2014 in remembrance of the victims of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi. [3] Matches were played at two venues in the city of Kigali – the Gahanga International Cricket Stadium and the IPRC Cricket Ground. [4] Kenya were the defending champions, having won the 2021 edition. [5] This was the fourth time that Kenya had won the tournament. [6]

Contents

Eleven teams were originally announced to participate this year, compared to five in 2021, highlighting the continued growth in size and reputation of the Kwibuka tournament. [7] Teams originally confirmed to take part were hosts Rwanda, defending champions Kenya, previous winners Tanzania and Uganda, as well as Botswana, Nigeria and, [8] making their first appearances at the Kwibuka tournament, Brazil, Germany, Ghana, Sierra Leone and Zimbabwe. [4] [9] However, the tournament was later reduced to eight teams. [10] This was the first edition of the Kwibuka tournament to feature teams from outside of Africa. [11] [12]

After the first three days of action, Kenya and Nigeria were unbeaten with three wins each. [13] [14] On day four, Tanzania maintained their 100% record by defeating the Kenyans, and moved top of the table after Nigeria were bowled out for only 43 runs by Uganda. [15] After the round-robin stage was completed, Kenya and the undefeated Tanzania qualified for the final, while the hosts progressed to the third-place play-off against Uganda. [16]

On the first day of the play-offs, Germany beat Botswana to finish in seventh place, and Nigeria beat Brazil to finish fifth overall. [17] [18] On the final day of the competition, Uganda beat Rwanda to finish in third place, [19] and Tanzania defeated Kenya in the final to win the tournament for a second time. [20] Tanzania had won the tournament in their only previous appearance in 2019, but had been unable to defend the title in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. [21]
