Yep, sure opens things up in Group B. Kenya to go through? Who'd have predicted that!
I think SA will make it through. The game versus SL on 3rd March will be crucial...

Also The kenya victory over Bangladesh will give kenyans a good chance to qualify for super six.
Also ICC is seriously thinking making Kenya a test playing nation. good news for kenyan's Fans
