Kenya beat Botswana 216 to 152 in the Africa Cup ILT20 on 17 September 2026. The visitors took control early and never let the home side back into the contest. It was a comprehensive victory that reinforced Kenya's position at the top of the table.
Kenya sit second with 14 points from eight games, one defeat and seven wins. Botswana occupy fourth place with just four points, two wins and six losses. The gap between them is telling — ten points separate sides at opposite ends of the mid-table pack.
By then Kenya had already shown their intent in the league. They beat Botswana 109 to 108 on 11 September, held their nerve in a tight affair. This time there was no drama, just a statement of superiority from the visitors who worked the channels effectively.
Kenya's recent results suggest confidence. They beat Rwanda 189 to 157 on 15 September, then edged Sierra Leone 116 to 112. Three of their last five games have produced scores over 180 points. They let the game flow, and the results followed.
Botswana showed resilience against Sierra Leone with a 165 to 142 win, but that form has not carried forward. They lost to Uganda 119 to 125 yesterday and have now dropped four of their last five matches. The old head settled them down once, but the momentum has shifted.
The result extends Kenya's unbeaten run to five games in the tournament. Botswana's hopes of climbing higher look dim with only four points from eight matches. At this stage of the competition, the standings tell the story clearly enough.
