The 2023 East Africa T20 Cup was a Twenty20 International (T20I) cricket tournament that took place in Rwanda in August 2023.[1] The venue for the series was the Gahanga International Cricket Stadium in Kigali.[2]

The participating teams were the hosts Rwanda along with Tanzania and Uganda.[3] Ghana were originally scheduled to participate, but withdrew before the start of the tournament.[4] Uganda, the defending champions, having won the 2022 tournament,[5] also achieved victory in the 2023 tournament, with eleven wins in twelve matches.[6] Uganda's only defeat in the tournament was against Tanzania on 21 August 2023. They bounced back by defeating Tanzania four times in the remainder of the tournament.
