T20 World Cup Global Qualifier: Zimbabwe and Namibia have secured spots in the ICC Women's T20 World Cup Global Qualifier, set to be held in Nepal early next year. The ten-team tournament will determine the final four spots for the expanded 2026 Women's T20 World Cup in England.

Neither Zimbabwe nor Namibia have previously qualified for a women's cricket World Cup in any format. Their progression to the global qualifiers makes for a huge moment in the development of women's cricket in the African region.

Zimbabwe booked their place with a five-wicket win over Uganda in the first semi-final of the Africa Region Division One Qualifier. Zimbabwe were in a spot of bother at 86/4 in the 16th over, but eventually romped home with 14 balls to spare.
