Do you mean me? Unashamedly proud of it, m8. Lol.

A spirited effort from Zimbabwe with good knocks from Andy (62) and Grant (37) Flower and power hitting late in the innings from Andy Blignaut (54 from 28 balls) and Heath Streak (28 from 19) which saw them reach 9/246.

Glen McGrath took 2/24 from 9 and Brad Hogg, 3/46 from 8. Dizzy took 2/50 and Andrew Symonds bowled a top spell of 10 overs for only 35 runs.

Only saw the end of the Zimbos innings and they made a good fist of things. Most of the minnows have a couple good players but struggle for real depth. Zimbabwe are a bit better than minnows but need more depth.

Try this one on for size!

Collins Obuya has played 18 ODIs for Kenya and, before today, had a best bowling return of 2/46 for a total of 9 wickets.

Today he's taken 5 Sri Lankan wickets for 24 runs from 10 overs!

S.L. are teetering on 7/124 after 35 overs, chasing 211.

KENYA WON !!

They dismissed Sri Lanka for 157 in 45 overs to win by 53 runs. Russell Arnold remained on 25 n.o.

Kenyan captain Steve Tikolo snuffed out the Sri Lankan's last attempts to win with 2/13 from 5 overs.

With Bangladesh to play, Kenya could well make the Super Sixes!

The Aussies cruised to a good win with 15 balls to spare. A solid partnership from Martyn (50) and Lehmann (56 in 48 balls) sealed Zimbabwe's fate.

I hope JLC stayed up to watch such an excellent batting display, especially from our old mate, Boofa.
