One of the most anticipated tournaments of 2022 gets underway today in Kigali, Rwanda, the Kwibuka Tournament.

The Kiwibuka tournament is with us once again when eight teams compete for the trophy in Kigali, Rwanda, starting June 9th.

Nine teams will compete for three vacant spots in the 2022 World Cup in March and a further two positions in the ICC World Championships.
