Left handed
opener Tamim Iqbal was the only batsman to put
up anything good for his side at Benoni. Tamim
scored 56 from 41 with 8 fours and a six but his
side collapsed to be bowled out in just 16.3
overs! Bangladeshi batsmen put on en extremely
sorry show after they were asked to bat first by
Kenya. Medium pacers Nehemiah Odhiambo
(4-0-37-3) and Lameck Onyango (4-0-19-2) were
the bowling heroes.
Kenya took their
time in chasing the low target with the
asking rate not even at 6.00. They won
the game with just one ball to spare but
they had six wickets intact in their
chase. Skipper Steve Tikolo was the top
scorer with 36 from 28 with 5 fours.
Mohammad Ashraful was the surprise
package with the ball as he took 2 for
19 in his 4 overs. Interestingly the
match had seen just two sixes with both
of them coming from Bangladesh.
