The 2022 Capricorn Women's Tri-Series was a Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) cricket tournament that was held in Namibia in April 2022.[1][2] The participating teams were the hosts Namibia, along with Uganda and Zimbabwe.[3][4] The tournament consisted of a triple round-robin stage followed by a final between the top two teams.[5][6] The series was the first as head coach of Zimbabwe Women for former international cricketer Gary Brent.[7]
Namibia won the opening match of the series, against Zimbabwe, by seven wickets,[8] to record their first ever win against a Full Member side.[9] On day two of the series, Uganda lost both of their matches, the first by twelve runs to Namibia,[10] and then by eight runs to Zimbabwe.[11] Zimbabwe defeated Uganda again on day three, this time by 22 runs, despite a controversial dismissal of Zimbabwean captain Mary-Ann Musonda for obstructing the field.[12] On the fourth day, Zimbabwe bowled out the hosts for only 41 runs before securing a win by nine wickets.[13] Namibia were bowled out cheaply again in the afternoon, this time for 68, but were still able to defeat Uganda by 28 runs thanks to a first five-wicket haul for Sune Wittmann.[14] Zimbabwe rotated their squad for their final round-robin game, in which Josephine Nkomo took the captaincy in a win by 11 runs over Uganda.[15] Later on day five, Zimbabwe recorded their highest WT20I partnership, with openers Sharne Mayers and Kelis Ndhlovu adding an unbeaten 156 runs in a 67-run win over Namibia.[16]
Following the conclusion of the round-robin matches, Zimbabwe and Namibia had advanced to the final of the series.[17] Zimbabwe won the final by seven wickets, with Nomvelo Sibanda taking a hat-trick and a five-wicket haul.[18][19]
