We're home - at a 6am finish! Kenyans gave us a bit of a jolt, though!

Bring on the Sri Lankans!

c.i., this is limited over (one-day) cricket. 50 overs (6 balls to an over) for each side.

Kenya 8 wickets for 174 runs in 50 overs; (batted first)

Australia 5 wickets for 178 runs, in about 30 overs.

Wasn't as much of a walkover as the score sounds.

What I find amazing is that a small, poor, country like Kenya, can compete with the world's best. I know they also produce some of the best runners in the world. Got to give credit where credit is due, and they deserve every bit of it. Thanks for sharing. c.i.

Considering they were 3/3 it turned out to be an excellent performance. A bit rough on the Kenyan captain who appeared to get a broken arm from a Brett Lee screamer. (97mph)

Yep, it's a slow pitch, and I don't think the Lankans will find it any easier to bat on against the Aussies. 200 and I'll be happy.

Pretty tough, but I'm a very faithful believer in our ability to defend a target.

212/7 !! I would love to see Sri Lanka win - as that might increase our chances.

But as a ture sprotsman - I want to see Aus to go through - as they clearly are the (2nd) best team !! <tongue firmly in cheek>

If closest is the winner, I think you've got a free drink. 7/76, I'm calling it a night. Have fun.
