Any chance of these poor Kenyans making 50 between them?? It's like we're bowling to a team of bunnies... Kenya are 5/17 in the 13th over, McGrath has 3 wickets and Gillespie has 2 wickets. Brett Lee must be chomping at the bit to have a bowl!! :D:D

Cheers!! :cool:

An old Uni mate opens the batting for Kenya, so I always cheer for them. Oh yeah, and I hate Australia!:D

Kenya are now 6 for 48 in the 20th over. Suji retired hurt, very hurt indeed after playing a defensive shot with his head instead of his bat.

Cheers!! :cool:

Got him, yes... beautiful piece of bowling by Shane Watson!! Finally a Kenyan batsman is good enough to hit one and Adam Gilchrist takes the catch... Kenya are 7 for 53 after 24 overs and with Suji retired hurt, there's only 2 wickets left.

If the Kenyan batsman play any more further away from their bodies then they're doing now, I'll need a widescreen tv just to see the whole shot!! :D:D

Cheers!! :cool:

Instead to putting the Cricket on Fox Sports, maybe it would be better putting it on the Comedy Channel...LOL:D:D

Kenya are all out for a dismal total of 84. McGrath and Gillespie took 3 wickets, Watson 2 wickets, Warne and Lee 1 wicket each.

Tony Suji came back into bat after being hit in the head and remained not out at the end.

Kenya's score of 84 is their all-time lowest score in limited overs internationals, beating their previous worst of 90.

Cheers!! :cool:

I wonder if Kenya seriously think they can win from now...LOL:D Well that's something they can say: "At least we got one wicket, and we at least bowled 10 overs."

Thanks for the updates SeinDude.....

At least Kenya past the all-time lowest score in one day internationals which is currently held by Zimbabwe at 38 against Sri Lanka in Colombo. Mind you, at 6 for 17 they were ready to give it a good shake!!

Mark Waugh and more recently Matthew Hayden

My favourite cricketer is probably Adam Gilchrist. He is one of the world's best batters, and probably the world's best wicket-keeper!!

Give 'em a break, you have to play the big boys and get experience somehow. That's the point of these games, to give them an idea where they have to improve and some encouragement.
And as you've pointed out with that stat about the lowest score, Seindude, Sri Lanka started out in the same way as Kenya are now. If they learn and improve, there's no reason why they can't emulate them.

The Hippie,

I was just having some fun with a game what was pretty boring after Kenya collapsed to be 6 for 17. They'll certainly improve as they get more experience against the better teams, and they did fight it out at the end of their innings which was good.

Cheers!! :cool:

You have got to be kidding me. Best alround when you take batting into account but his glove work is not the best in Australia. Darren Berry is a better gloveman.

Best wicket-kepper in the world is a toss up at the moment between the South African Boucher and the West Indian. Though the 17 year old Indian keeper Patel has impressed me in the last 2 test, the kid will be the best before he retires.

I rate Boucher. Complete Yarpie Poison, but a great keeper and a nuggety Bat.
