The Nairobi Gymkhana comes alive from 9th - 20th June when Cricket Kenya hosts five Nations in the inaugural Continent Cup T20 - Africa. This comes in the wake of an 7 - year lull since the country hosted a multi-team Senior Men's tournament in the form of Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Uganda in a Quadrangular tournament in 2016. Kenya have only managed to host Hong Kong in November 2016 and Nepal in September 2022.
The tournament will consist of eighteen televised matches as the hosts renew their rivalry with neighbours Uganda and Tanzania as well as Rwanda, Nigeria and Botswana at the same venue. This will be a great test ahead of a series of regional fixtures for all the teams involved.
The hosts take on Botswana in the opening fixture at 9:300am with the highly anticipated duel between Kenya and Uganda closing off the round robin stage on 17th June at 2:00pm.
