The T20 World Cup Africa Qualifier 2026 will begin on March 24 with Tanzania taking on Malawi at Achimota Senior Secondary School A Field in Ghana. Tanzania has had a strong performance in recent times. They were also successful in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup Africa Region 2025 last year in October, finishing 4th.

Malawi's recent performance has been poor. Their last tournament, the ICC Men's T20 World Cup Africa sub-regional Qualifier 2025, was not successful for them as they only won two out of five matches, finished in seventh spot, and couldn't qualify for the ICC T20 World Cup 2026.
