Yeah, but their problem is that they now have to have three results - in addition to their own (both Dutch games + Scotland don't thump UAE too much) go the right way for them to qualify - I know each of them in isolation is somewhat realistic, but all of them probably won't happen. Also, you shouldn't finish fourth in an eight-team league by losing more games than you win.

Not necessarily, Kenya could screw up too.

Zimbabwe are playing in the 2011 World Cup so that makes 14 teams. I suspect if Zimbabwe doesn't play, the 5th place team will get a chance as well.

The powersahre will have been sorted out by then then there won't be an excuse to keep Zimbabwe out in the cold.

No seriously On Nemi Odhiambo, why punish a bowler, (who pulled his weight with the bat as well and was man of the match in the last game) for the sake of a brittle top order?

:no:

Hundred up for Jan-Berry Burger! Namibia look set for a big one, 162-0 after 28.

What have Kenya been like chasing?

JB Burger st Morris Ouma b Lameck Ngoche 125 96 16 3 130.21

Lameck should be reclassified a slow medium

The only time Kenya have had to chase a real target this tournament (259) it was against Bermuda. So there is no knowing

Going to have to make a lot more than that today I fear. 300 and then some.

Canada really fizzling out now, 133-7.

I guess playing 8 batsmen wasnt such a bad idea after all for Kenya. :unsure:

And a few quick wickets have slowed things down a bit also.

They also chased this with about 8 overs to spare I think, so there chasing has been good.

Looks like only Canada will fall short of 200 though ... there should be some good finishes later.

Cricketeurope was just giving Holland's score as 163-5 off 38.9 overs. :laugh:

I think Kenya are capable of chasing 280, and the Namibian bowlers have been far from flash hot throughout the tournament. Will be an interesting chase. Hoping Waters tons up.
