MATCH PREVIEW
November 26, 2023. Zimbabwe had just been beaten by Uganda in the Men’s T20 World Cup Africa regional final to end its hopes of qualifying for the 2024 World Cup in the West Indies and the USA. It was the only full member nation not to be on the plane to the North American continent.

The team gears up for its Group B clash against Ireland at the Pallekele International Stadium on Tuesday, knowing a win could take it a step closer to creating history.
