Zims currently 45-3. Kenya looking a good chance to lock in 3rd place.

Zim 76-4 in the 23 over, A flower not out 42 .

Dont know how the pich is playing but Kenya could be on the way to a minor upset currently ...... Zim 99-7 in the 32nd over A flower 53 not out.

In a touch of trouble aren't they!

8/114 now. Zimbabwe have test status and Kenya don't? It just does'nt make sense.

IMO, Bangladesh only have test status in order to prop up the test records of every other asian cricketer.

All out 133. Go Kenya!

 

[mellowyellow]

Zimbabwe all out in the 45 over for 133.

Zimbabwe batted very poorly but to say that would be taking away from the performance of the Kenyan bowlers who kept a tight line and length all the way through and didn't allow Zimbabwe many balls to hit at all.

Having said that, Zimbabwe aren't completely out of this match just yet... if they can make early inroads with the new ball, it's still anyone's game.

Hope that Kenya can make the runs although i hope my mate Dougie takes a bag as well.

Looks like Kenya will make the Semi-Finals, wow i'd love to have a bit of money riding on that!

Kenya make the semi finals of the World Cup.

Cricket is a funny game

In general Zimbabwe are distance ahead of Kenya, one game doesn't make them worse

 

[scmods]

After a promising start, Kenya are now 2/33.

 

[Kenny_01]

It's looking more likely that Kenya will win now giving India an easy road to the final.

 

[P0RT P0WER]

Kenya need 9 off a 150 balls, if anyone can do it Kenya can.

Looks like an India v Kenya final now, Kenya can't finish lower than third in the world.
I think thats right.

 

[Booze Hound]

Kenya win by 7 wickets!

 

[Kenny_01]

More than likely we play NZ now, unless SL beat Zim and India beat NZ. In that case, we will play SL.

I think I am going to cry.
I was going to put $20 on them at 150-1 to make the Semi Finals of the world cup

Zimbabwe will be bitterly disappointed with how they played last night, throwing away their chance of making the semi finals. Full credit to Kenya though, they had a basic gameplan and played within their limitations.

Jump on the Collins Omondi Obuya bandwagon my friends

Its gathering pace

The World's best leg spinnner.

Yes, I'm seething this morning - went to trouble of checking their odds at the start of the tournament, but did nothing, even after someone on this very board said it was worth a flutter I hope they got on!

Jars - I reckon Obuya is definitely world class, I haven't seen him bowl a bad ball all tournament.

Kenya have to get test status in June surely - if not the ICC is even more corrupt and racist than I thought.

Now now, let's not live with regret. Let's just be happy for the Kenyans.
