Sri Lanka A v Kenya, 4th match, Nairobi

Sri Lanka A win fourth consecutive game

Wisden Cricinfo staff

October 26, 2003

Sri Lanka A, continuing their quest to show that the senior team's loss to Kenya in the 2003 World Cup was an aberration, won their fourth consecutive one-dayer against Kenya, and now lead their five-game series 4-0. The match was reduced to 25 overs because parts of the outfield were wet, and Sri Lanka batting first, made 171 for 9. Kenya could only make 125 in reply.

Nuwan Zoysa was the star for Sri Lanka, though strangely with the bat and not ball. Opening the innings, he slammed a quickfire 39, and the momentum he established helped Sri Lanka set Kenya almost seven an over to win.

A slew of early wickets robbed Kenya of any chance they had, though Collins Obuya (29 not out) and Thomas Odoyo (20) put up a gutsy lower-order resistance. Rangana Herath and Wijekoon Ramyakumara took three wickets each, bowling with accuracy and control to peg Kenya back.
