A diminutive left-arm spinner who has no pretensions with the bat. He comes from a well-known cricketing family and three other brothers - James and Nehemiah, who are both in the World Cup squad, and Lameck- and two sisters - Margaret and Mary - have played for Kenya.
Strengths
He often operates from round the wicket, and while he does not turn the ball much he has the gift of accuracy.
Key stats
World Cup tracker
The 2011 World Cup will be his first.
Expert view
"His strength is left-arm spin, but he can actually be good in all departments. He is a brilliant fielder, and could be one of the surprises of the tournament" - Eldine Baptiste, Kenya coach
