Kenya and Uganda were knocked out of the Men’s African Games 2024 on Thursday. This meant that the two teams would not play in the final game to win the gold medal. Both sides will now contend for a third place in the tournament.
Uganda (UGA) had played a near-perfect tournament before losing to Namibia in the semi-finals. Till the final four games, Uganda played out of their skin and shone bright with the bat and ball.
Kenya (KEN), after a slow start to the tournament, Rakep Patel and his side finally found their feet. Running into Zimbabwe was always going to be a test for the Kenyan side. There are many positives from the tournament, as a young Aarnav Patel has been discovered.

Player Picks
Collins Obuya KNA | ALL
Kenya’s most experienced and the senior most player in the tournament has upped his performance when it mattered. With three successive half-centuries Collins Obuya has become a huge cog in the wheel for his Kenyan side.
Roger Mukasa UGA | WK
Uganda opener Roger Mukasa has been one of the most consistent batters during the tournament. While the rest of the batters have been struggling to time the ball, the 34-year-old has shown his class and stood up in tough times.

Lucas Ndandason
KNA | BOWL
After a strong start to the tournament, Lucas Oluoch has lost his way. The last few games have been tough for the veteran bowler and his performance in the semis was abysmal. With 42 runs conceded from 4 overs, the Kenyans will hope the 32-year-old can rediscover his mojo.
Cosmas Kyewuta
UGA | BOWL
– At the age of 22, the medium pacer has already played 23 games for his side and picked 23 wickets. Cosmos Kyewuta has been labelled as a very promising talent in Uganda. His performance in the semi-finals didn’t measure up the hype as the seamer gave 21 runs from 3 overs.
