The top two teams at the end of the competition will advance to the Africa qualifiers where they will be joined by Nambia, Uganda and four other African nations from sub-regional qualifiers A and C. Two teams from the Africa qualifiers will earn tickets to the ICC 2026 Men's T20 World Cup that will be co-hosted by India and Sri Lanka.
Rwanda who had managed to go to the final African qualifiers last time will once again try to breach the first barrier. They will be led by Clinton Rubagumya in the tournament.
Led by Ismaila Tamba, Gambia will have a tough time in the tournament. In the sub-regional qualifiers ahead of the 2024 T20 World Cup, Gambia managed to win just one out of their seven games. To defeat Rwanda will be a mighty task for Gambia. Rwanda, on the other hand, would want to begin with a strong win in the opener.
