Uganda Cricket Association (UCA) will be hosting the Women’s National team of United States of America (USA) for the Easter Women’s T20 Cup from 09th to 15th April, 2026 at Entebbe Cricket Oval. The tournament will feature both the senior squad and “A” squad for Uganda, with the event serving as a development initiative for all the teams. Team Nepal, who were initially advertised to be also taking part, is no longer participating, based on the updated schedule announced by Uganda Cricket.
The series is crucial for USA, who will travel to Kigali in Rwanda after the conclusion of this event, to take part in the inaugural edition of ICC Women’s Challenge Trophy from April 18th – May 02nd, 2026. All the matches will not carry official ICC T20I team ranking points, as Uganda Cricket is using this opportunity to develop their bench strength, for future senior team call-up, and USA team is using this tournament to get used to African conditions.

Is it confirmed that matches won’t have T20I status? ICC shows them as T20I.
Hello Shishir
ICC website lists the matches as T20Is, yes. The official Uganda Cricket press release specifically said that this event will be mainly used for development purpose. We will know as the event draws near. There has been many instances where ICC page has designated a match as T2OI at first, and changed that later.
Thanks and regards,
