Final Group Match - v Kenya
So, with India the favourites to top the group, but facing Kenya, who have sometimes caused upsets at the major world tournament.
The same team plays again.
Captain's Report:
Well, we batted really well and were unfourtunate to not make 300 after choosing to bat with G Gambhir just 5 away from his century at the end of the 50 overs. The best of their bowlers was T Watson with 2-54.
Our bowling was just as impressive - our seamers doing most of the work with 6-58 between them, the better if the C Dixit with 4-36. We bowled them out for a measly total of 124. This left us at the top of the group and carrying points forward into the Super 8.
Summary:
India 296-4
G Gambhir 95no
R Shukla 86
T Watson 2-54
I Chandler 1-64
Kenya 124ao
P Lappin 54no
I Chandler 29
C Dixit 4-36
A Salvi 2-22
India won by 172 runs. Man of The Match: C Dixit.
