T20 World Cup Africa Qualifier: Zimbabwe have named a strong 14-player squad set to participate in the 2025 ICC Women’s T20 World Cup Africa Qualifier, to be held in Namibia from August 31 to September 6.

Veteran batter Chipo Mugeri-Tiripano will lead the side, which is a mix of seasoned campaigners and emerging talents, as Zimbabwe seek to secure a place at next year’s Global Qualifiers in Nepal – the final step towards qualifying for the 2026 ICC Women’s T20 World Cup, to be played in England.

Zimbabwe have been slotted in Group A of the Africa Qualifiers alongside hosts Namibia, Nigeria, and Sierra Leone, while Group B consists of Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya, and Rwanda.
