A match between two teams that won their first match. If New Zealand wins today, they're through to the next round. If Kenya wins today, they'll be in good shape, but won't be through yet.


New Zealand L Vincent, SP Fleming, RL Taylor, SB Styris, JDP Oram, CD McMillan, BB McCullum, DL Vettori, JEC Franklin, SE Bond, MJ Mason

Kenya MA Ouma, DO Obuya, RD Shah, SO Tikolo, T Mishra, CO Obuya, TM Odoyo, JK Kamande, LN Onyango, PJ Ongondo, HA Varaiya


Kenya won the toss and chose to field
 
Re: Group C - Kenya v New Zealand

Lou Vincent was out in the first over for a duck, but Fleming and Taylor are working on a recovery here. Fleming has scored 36 off of 39 balls.

New Zealand 53-1 after 13 overs.
 
Re: Group C - Kenya v New Zealand

Looks like New Zeland is going to score a lot in the final 10 overs here.
They'll finish well above 300.
 
Re: Group C - Kenya v New Zealand

New Zealand finished on 331/7 in their 50 overs.
a mamoth task for Kenya to chase, but not impossible for them. I'm sure they'll give it their best shot
 
Re: Group C - Kenya v New Zealand

Good batting from most of the New Zealand batsmen, they finish 331-7
 
Re: Group C - Kenya v New Zealand

Big trouble early for Kenya.
8-2 after 5.2 overs.

They may not even get close today.
 
Re: Group C - Kenya v New Zealand

rain stops play at 21-2


it looks like it will just be a brief little shower though, and I'm sure we'll get the required 20 overs in today
 
Re: Group C - Kenya v New Zealand

Play resumes

Mason gets Tikolo to hit an easy one to Vettori

Kenya 26-3 after 10.5


BUT, the clouds are looking dark again. I wouldn't be surpised by another rain stoppage.
 
Re: Group C - Kenya v New Zealand

36-4 after 13, and rain has delayed play again


When they play again, Fleming just needs to put on some bowlers who can get through 7 overs as quickly as possible.
 
Re: Group C - Kenya v New Zealand

Good c & b from Vettori to get Shah for 71


Kenya 122-6 after 30, and now that Shah is done, they probably won't last too much longer.
 
Re: Group C - Kenya v New Zealand

They have another 18 overs to make 205 runs, with 4 wickets in hand
 
Re: Group C - Kenya v New Zealand

147/6 15.2 overs remaining, they should hopefully get to 200 if they don't lose any more quick wickets
 
Re: Group C - Kenya v New Zealand

Kenya 172-8 after 43

With only 2 wickets remaining, they're going to have a tough time reaching 200.

It's still going to come down to the England/Kenya match though.
