*Official* Afghanistan in Kenya 2010

[alvarez]

Why not, If you can Loan us Raina, Kohli, Yuvraj or Laxman - I am sure you will do well without them

Btw Kenya are four down, hamid has taken 3

Make that 4. Now 5.

How about Ravindra Jadeja?

 

[elmadrid]

Hamid hassan has taken 5 wicket in 10 overs. Well done! But has given 56 runs in the process.

 

[Athlai]

This is a slaughter.

 

[elmadrid]

How about Ravindra Jadeja?

For him you can only get a begger from Kabul not Hamid hassan!

 

[alvarez]

A bit of resistance from Kenya's 2 county players in Aga and Waters, but still getting completely dominated.

EDIT: Spoke too soon, Waters out for 73.

 

[elmadrid]

Kenya 153 for 9.

47 overs left for today.

 

[alvarez]

I dare say Kenya will be getting sent back in here.

Most of the quick pAkistani bowlers are of Pathan tribe. Some Afgans also belongs to that tribe (Biggest tribe is Pashtuns if I am not mistaken). Hamid Hassan most probably is a Pathan, who actutally has physique for fast bowling unlike other sub continental teams.

Apart from Umer Gul none of Pak pacers are from Pakhtoon tribe one can argue Imran was but even he was born and raised in North Punjab.

I badly wanna see a 3 Odi series between Afghanistan & Zim/B.Desh. Wen will my dream come true? I guess they deserve to be on the ODI table.

 

[alvarez]

Very surprised Afghanistan didnt enforce the follow on. Terrible showing from Kenya's batsmen, Waters aside. Not sure why they didnt pick Tanmay Mishra considering he is available.

 

[alvarez]

Kenya 185/2 chasing 512. They dont stand a chance but a much better batting display.

 

[laksh_01]

Gud to see some resistance from Kenya. Though the match belongs to Afg.

 

[NZ Guy]

Hamid Hassan, what a champ! How long before Pakistan, India or even Bangladesh try to nick him? Defiantly my favourite associate player, I think an appreciation society is needed!

 

[laksh_01]

Now its time for Odis. Gud to see kenya hitting some form in the final innings. ODIs should be more competative.

Definietly, mine too. He and Ryan ten Doschate are the best around these days. Doschate may be the better player, but this guy is fun to watch with his pace and swing. I only saw him during the ICC champions trophy, but the way he was dishing some quick stuff against better teams was fun to watch. He and Jonkman are the only genuinely quick bowlers that associates have.

Nobody is going to nick him. He is too a patriotic a Player to Leave his own country to play for Pakistan,India and BD.

was actually at the Gymkhana for the last two days of the Intercontinental Cup games. Missed Ngoche's 5 fer, but saw the whole of kenya's 2nd innings. was siiting a row down fro Maurice Odumbe and Peter ongondo too (so that provided quite some interesting 'match commentary).

All in all I reckon Kenya could have pulled off the chase had Ouma and Odoyo still been at the crease at stumps, but Ouma figured he'd charge down the wicket and get himself out with just 2 overs left to play on day 3. Possibly the straw that broke the camel's back with his resgnation methinks.

Also surprised Mishra missed out on a spot in the ODI team, being he looked quites solid in nets.

Andruid, U going to that Odis? How do u think will be the attendence like for these matches? Anyone interested/aware these matches happening?

Not likely. hardly much interest in the press and the guys I found at the match seem to the same old folk who watch pretty much all the games played there. Nevermind the nations attentions right now are on the Commonwealth Games.
