Netherlands now on 438/8, with the number 10 approaching a half century. The Kenyan bowlers aren't that bad, so it must be a really flat pitch.

Netherlands all out for 474. That's a record for the Intercontinental Cup, and ten Doeschate's 158 is the highest first class score by a Dutchman.
It might not be as flat as we think. Kenya 135/5 at stumps! Tikolo with yet another 50, Mishra making only 16 (Apparently ten Doeschate can bowl too...) and Modi yet to come in. Odoyo sent in above him.
What does Karia bowl, Cricinfo doesn't tell. And he is yet to come in to bat, and only bowled 6 overs. He isn't the keeper, Ouma is...

Steve Tikolo is not out on a mammoth 186 off 306 (
!!) as Kenya are 332/9 on stumps Day 3. Modi is -rather suprisingly- the number XI. Ogondo battled for 132 balls for his 37 and Odoyo 75 for his 17. 1 day to go, this looks like a draw. ten Doeschate took 2 wickets, so it will be a tough contest between him and Tikolo (Who could get the 200 if Modi supports him well) for MOTM.

Modi is only batting at 11 because he borke his finger whilst fielding. He batted simply to stop Kenya having to follow on.

hmm can't say im to happy with the way being bowled, and the hole in the covers? Ten Doeschate being a bit of a team man too! one hand is injured badly, and tapped in. COMMON DUTCHIES

In the previous two tournaments teams had to declare after 100 overs in the first innings. They're really taking advantage of that now!

To give regular cricket to minnows, the best thing would be to involve them into the first class structure in the nearest test nations.
For eg. Nepal & bangladesh should in Indian domestic cricket, Afganistan in Pak, Ireland, Scots, Dutch in English set up, Namibia, Kenya, Zims in SA, US & Canada in WI.
Intercontinetal torney are good, but they need all year cricket to get exposure in higher stds.

A drawn game where both teams have completed an innings gives 6 points to the team with the lead on first innings.Sureshot said:
