lol yeah, actually to make things more interesting, and to get people involved in the story, why dont people post what they think the suprise is, and if anyone gets it right, there will be Rep points involved. If no one gets it right, then the closet to the real thing might get some Points, sound good?

Kenya make Reasonable start

Kenya have made a reasonable start in their match against England in the final stages of the World Cup Compettion. After 20 overs, Kenya are 87/1 with the loss of Obuya for 16. Shah and Tikolo are at the crease now for the Kenyan's. James Anderson was the man for the Poms that got the wicket of Obuya, bowling a yorker ish ball that was flicked in the air and caught by Andrew Caddick. That wicket came in the 9th over, and now Shah- 29 and Tikolo-33 are at the crease for Kenya. Tikolo has made an impact since coming onto the field, already up to 33 runs, has already outpasted Shah who has been batting 9 overs more then what Tikolo has been. Shah has been more defensive into his start, but has really put the foot on the gas in the last 5 overs or so, and at drinks, Kenya are 87/1

D. Obuya: c. Caddick - b. Anderson - 16

Kenya vs England (40 overs gone)

Kenya look 220+

Kenya are in a little bit of trouble at the 40th over mark in their match against England in the World Cup. Kenya are 182 with 7 wickets down after 40 overs. After the wicket to James Anderson of Obuya, Kenya has played well. Shah and Tikolo both really dominated their time at the crease. Anderson was bowling brilliant. He mixed up alot of deliveries very well. The line and length was very good and accurate which made the batsman confused and concerned about what he would do next. Anderson wasnt bowling his usual pace either, has been alot slower then what he has been doing lately. He averages 140 but is around the 125-130 mark in this match, and might just pick it up a bit in the later stage of this match, if he gets a bowl.


S. Tikolo dominates

After the wicket to Flintoff of Shah, then things all started going wrong for Kenya. England were playing well, with the momentum of the wicket, England started playing like a team that wanted to win. Monty Panesar came into the attack and it wasnt long before he got his wicket, and it was Tikolo, the man that was on fire for Kenya, and the man that was saving them from a shockin result. Panesar, the spinner, was helped out by Paul Nixon who took the catch from the edge to his left side, which was his 2nd catch of the match also helping Flintoff as he took the wicket of Shah. Paul Nixon was having a great day, took 3 catches in a row. Shah, Tikolo and Modi all in the time of 20 minutes. Modi only going for 16, with the brilliant bowling from Freddy Flintoff and Nixon with the catch. England look settled now.
