The 2007 Kenya Twenty20 Quadrangular was a Twenty20 International (T20I) cricket tournament held in Kenya from 1 to 4 September 2007. The four participating teams were Bangladesh, Kenya, Pakistan and Uganda (matches involving Uganda were not classed as T20I matches as the team did not hold such status). The matches were all played at the Gymkhana Club Ground in Nairobi.{{cite web|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/series/306979.html|title=Twenty20 Quadrangular (in Kenya) |date=31 August 2007|work=cricinfo.com|publisher=Cricinfo|accessdate=27 June 2019}}
