The
2019 Kwibuka Women's T20 Tournament
was a
women's T20I cricket
(WT20I) tournament held in

This was the sixth edition of the annual
Kwibuka T20 Tournament

Genocide
against the Tutsi.

The participants were the women's national sides of
Rwanda
,
Uganda
,
Mali
and
Tanzania
, with the latter two teams making their first appearance in the tournament while defending champions
Kenya
withdrew due to lack of funding.
[5]
This was the first time in the tournament's history that the matches were recognised as official WT20I games as per
ICC
's announcement to provide full WT20I status to all the matches played between the associate teams after 1 July 2018.
[6]
All the matches were played at the
Gahanga International Cricket Stadium
in
Kigali
.

Kenya had previously won the title three times (2015, 2017, 2018) while Uganda had won it twice, the inaugural edition in 2014 and also in 2016.
[3]
Tanzania Women won this year's edition by winning all of their matches and thus remaining unbeaten, while two Ugandan players,
Rita Musamali
and
Joyce Apio
became the highest run scorer and wicket taker respectively.

the lowest team total in a completed WT20I match
. The Rwandan side chased down the target of seven runs in just four balls to win the match by ten wickets with 116 balls to spare.
[11]
In the fifth match of the tournament against Mali, Uganda went on to score 314/2 in 20 overs,
[12]
making it
the highest team total in Women's Twenty20 internationals
.

It was the first time in a T20 international cricket match, male or female, that a team had scored 300 runs.
[13]
The Mali team were bowled out for 10 runs in 11.1 overs, the second lowest team total in WT20Is. The margin of victory (304 runs) was also the biggest ever in a WT20I match.

The seventh edition of the tournament was scheduled to take place in June 2020, but was postponed until the following year due to the
COVID-19 pandemic
