Kenya vs West Indies - Warmup

54 for 3 West Indies is really a poor start. They are playing a wired lineup to try out players. Sarwan and Shiv are really a key now as If they depart they will be in big time trouble

Gayle or no Gayle, 6 batsmen out for less than 20 against an associate is poor. The batsmen who got past that showed it was a decent wicket. Kenya will chase in daylight too, so they're in with a look

kenya making a fist of this actually. not good signs for the west indies.

tikolo is yet coming out to bat, although not sure how he'll play after coming out of retirement for this.

 

[angryangy]

I tend to think that Collins Obuya and Steve Tikolo will win it if given the chance, but it could get messy after that. If they get out and the West Indies still get stuck, they'll only have themselves to blame.

RRR is way too high and kenyan batsmen would surely fall apart in trying to bring that down. But WI have a lot to worry about as bangladesh is looking good enough to beat them in group stage atm.

 

[Gaurav_7]

They were going really well and were in with a shot, all done now.

Kenya is more tuff then west indies and i hope kenya will win this practise match . Because there performance is very good in the first inning . as they are playing in this match .

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

Still well play Kenya. Sarwan if would have got out early or not made that century the Kenyans would have won but it's may be

 

[angryangy]

The West Indies should be concerned about not only Bangladesh, but Ireland and Netherlands too. If they can only show up with two batsmen on a given day, then all those teams are threats.

 

[aussie1st]

I'd say their pace should be just enough to get ahead of Netherlands and Ireland as long as their batsmen given them a competitive total.

 

[angryangy]

Their pace isn't that good that no first class batsman could ever hope to beat them. Last summer, Tom Cooper scored 160 against a West Indian side that featured Kemar Roach. The danger is in their own inconsistency. If they get their batsmen motivated, then so be it, but if they continue to be prone to plagues of low scores against associate bowlers, then the possibility of batsmen like Cooper and Ten Doeschate combining to make a good total goes from being a simple curiosity to a real threat.

 

[aussie1st]

It's more the pace of their bowlers which most associate nation players struggle with. In this match you had 7 wickets go to their two genuine quick bowlers. Cooper is use to playing against players with genuine pace especially given Tait bowls to him in the nets. The other guys on the other hand won't have faced them much and hence why the looked all at sea when they last played against Australia.
