        Bangladesh much to the 'experts' surprise and will be all perked
        up to take on Kenya who are on paper a stronger team and looking
        forward to further promotion as far as ICC status
       Both teams will be going all out as each has something to prove as
        minnows in the World Cup and wont want to be taken lightly
       The Newlands pitch is firm and fine, experts say plenty of runs and
        the team winning the toss ought to bat

       Kenyan bowlers bowled very tightly and could have restricted any
