NEW DELHI: Balaji Rao had captain Jimmy Kamande caught behind by Ashish Bagai to reduce Kenya to 109/6 in 29.2 overs in their World Cup clash at the Ferozeshah Kotla in New Delhi.

Kamande added 52 runs with Tanmay Mishra for the sixth wicket before Rao gave Canada the breakthrough.


Rizwan Cheema trapped Steve Tikolo plumb in front of the wicket to reduce Kenya to 57/5 in 15 overs.

This was after Harvir Baidwan clean bowled Collins Obuya to reduce Kenya to 41/4 in 11.3 overs.

Canada produced a dominant bowling performance against Kenya as Henry Osinde struck thrice with the ball.

Earlier, Kenyan captain Jimmy Kamande won the toss and elected to bat first against Canada.

For Kenya, Thomas Odoyo is in for Peter Ongondo and James Ngoche has been pencilled in place of his brother Shem.

Canada have brought in left-arm spinner Parth Desai in their line-up.

The whipping boys, who have each lost all three of their matches so far, will also hope that they will be able to breach the 150-run mark for the first time in this tournament.

While Kenya have been bundled out for scores of 69, 112 and 142 -- amassing just 323 runs in their three outings -- Canada have fared little better.

The North Americans have managed 122, 123 and 138 in their matches against Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe and Pakistan respectively.
