- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.2 and right away, Osinde strikes, bowled it fuller this time and much closer to off stumps, Ouma looked to leave it tentatively, there was sharp away movement which took the outside edge even as he looked to pull his bat away, and the ball settled in the palms of second slip 0/14.5 and the one that comes in as a surprise delivery gets him, Osinde likes it, it was pitched fuller and went on with the angle, Waters was tentative in pushing forward with all that away movement, and pushed outside the line, the ball raced through the gap between bat and pad, off the back pad and on to off stump which was uprooted out of the ground 7/211.3 another one departs, what a shot to play when you are three down, went heaving at a length delivery from the crease, wanting to lift it over midwicket, got nowhere close to the ball, it seamed in a shade to beat him even more comprehensively, and crashed in to the stumps 41/46.6 Osinde gets another one, you cannot play-and-miss repeatedly, have to nick one in the end, that is what happened this time, it was pitched closer to off stump, making him push forward, and moved away late to take the edge on its way to Bagai, who pouches it very happily 21/314.6 Cheema gets his man, or has he? Kenya's turn to review a leg-before decision that was given out, it was cutting in from the seam, struck him in the line of off stump, that would have gone on to hit middle stump, but Tikolo managed to get an inside edge on it before it struck the pad, but apparently the third umpire wanted clearer proof of there having been an inside edge, HotSpot would have confirmed it, but it isn't there, the decision stands, and Steve Tikolo has to walk back 57/542.1 Davison comes on and gets Mishra right away, lured him down the track with a flighted one from round the wicket, he got too close to the delivery and had a go at it, ending up getting a leading edge which went safely in the hands of mid off, this is a big wicket at this stage 166/729.2 Rao has struck, and Kamande's woes against spin come to an end. Short ball, landed close to his own half, and turning away from Kamande. He went for the cut, and if anything, seems to have been caught out by the extra bounce. Poor feet movement did not help his cause. He was rooted to where he took guard and went at it hard. He gets a faint edge on the cut, and Bagai pouches it well. 109/649.6 what a delivery! Odoyo is on all fours, and the stumps are shattered, again he gets the late inward movement as Odoyo backs away and looks to heave it down the ground, the ball tails in past his bat and crashes into the base of the stumps, 19 for 2 off the batting Powerplay 198/1043.6 and now he gets it in a place where appeals don't matter, even as Odhiambo went swishing again, this time the yorker was spot-on, crashing in to the stumps, Osinde has four with the last ball of his tenth over 171/848.6 Hansra denies Kenya a six, it was slogged again, and this time he got the connection, it flew high in the air and settled in the hands of Hansra at wide long on who was about half an inch from the ropes, talk about being in the right place at the right time, they look at the replays before confirming that it was clean 193/9Extras14 (lb 4, w 10)TOTAL198 all out (50 Overs, RR: 3.96)Fall of wickets: 1-0 (MA Ouma, 0.2 ov), 2-7 (SR Waters, 4.5 ov), 3-21 (DO Obuya, 6.6 ov), 4-41 (CO Obuya, 11.3 ov), 5-57 (SO Tikolo, 14.6 ov), 6-109 (JK Kamande, 29.2 ov), 7-166 (T Mishra, 42.1 ov), 8-171 (NN Odhiambo, 43.6 ov), 9-193 (E Otieno, 48.6 ov), 10-198 (TM Odoyo, 49.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11 This is Bizarroworld. Ruvindu might be out stumped. Shambles from Ruvindu. Shambles from Ouma. Shambles all round. Stupidity, says Ian Chappell. It slips down the leg side. Ruvindu misses the flick. And looks back. He can't see the ball. He thinks it has trickled away to fine leg. Ouma, cunningly, hid the ball in his left glove. Once Ruvindu strayed out of the crease, Ouma looked to flick the bails off. And missed! He then flicked again. This time he hits the stumps. Ruvindu is still not in! Haven't seen something so bizarre from a batsmen since Inzamam tumbled onto his stumps, attempting to sweep Panesar. 48/33.4 Elijah has struck. He runs around in glee, pumps his fist and then pulls up his tee shirt to cover his mouth! Some celebration that. Cheema was looking to blast everything out of his presence, and one of them has found its way past him. Short ball, not there for the drive. Not quite there for the pull. Cheema was on the front foot again and went for an ungainly heave across the line. Miss. Leg stump splatters. Elijah is delighted. 19/19.5 This could be curtains for Surkari. The difference between these teams could be the fielding. Kamande is the man on the move again, and he's hit the stumps down at the bowler's end. Similar ball, comes in with the angle, and Surkari bunts to the leg side and takes off. Kamande prowls in quickly, picks up on the move and has a shy at the bowler's end. Surkari was half a foot short. 37/242.5 after 70 impressive runs, Hansra is caught at mid on. There's no Waters there now to drop him. Ngoche holds on. Back of a length ball on off stump, certainly not there for the drive, but Hansra just goes through with the aerial on-drive. Doesn't middle it though, and it goes straight to Ngoche. 180/444.5 Aha, Kenya are down, but not yet out. Odhiambo has bowled Tyson round the legs. He delivers it full and on leg stump from over the wicket, Tyson shuffles too far across in search of the tickle to fine leg and misses. Leg stump is hit, Odhiambo is thrilled. 186/5Extras13 (b 1, nb 1, w 11)TOTAL199/5 (45.3 Overs, RR: 4.37)Fall of wickets: 1-19 (Rizwan Cheema, 3.4 ov), 2-37 (ZE Surkari, 9.5 ov), 3-48 (R Gunasekera, 11 ov), 4-180 (AS Hansra, 42.5 ov), 5-186 (TG Gordon, 44.5 ov)
