Kenya's one-day series in Zimbabwe has been cut from five matches to three for reasons as yet unclear.

The itinerary for the series was only confirmed last week, and the change has been made eight days before the Kenyans are due to arrive in Harare. While ZC did not offer any explanation for the decision, sources close to the board indicate that it was for financial reasons.

A spokesman for Cricket Kenya said that they had not been advised of the alteration. "As of last night, we have had no notification and it surprises me - but we will wait and see."

In a separate development, it seems likely that Zimbabwe will not be taking part in the tri-series in Bangladesh in March which also involves Kenya. Kenya will play three ODIs against Bangladesh instead.

Martin Williamson Executive editor Martin Williamson joined the Wisden website in its planning stages in 2001 after failing to make his millions in the internet boom when managing editor of Sportal. Before that he was in charge of Sky Sports Online and helped launch and run Sky News Online. With a preference for all things old (except his wife and children), he has recently confounded colleagues by displaying an uncharacteristic fondness for Twenty20 cricket. His enthusiasm for the game is sadly not matched by his ability, but he remains convinced that he might be a late developer and perseveres in the hope of an England call-up with his middle-order batting and non-spinning offbreaks. He is now managing editor of ESPN EMEA Digital Group as well as his Cricinfo responsibilities.
