Poor SA and WI.
Whatever the outcome could have been - SA ended up getting only two points from the match and in the process SL, Kenya and NZ goes through to the next round.
I know that some folks LOVE to support the weaklings like kenya and some were surprised that I have refused to term Kenya's success as more then a FLUKE and a whole lot of luck.
Think about it this way - SA and WI are FAR better then the Kenyan sides and thanks to rain, luck and some complications in the point system - they will go through to the next round with FULL points for beating SL and the points against NZ. This will simply lower the standards of the super six round.
Best of luck to Kenya, however, they are already riding on luck - any more and the World cup with be pointless.
Please feel free to disagree on me but watch the matches and you will admit that Kenya does not belong in the top six or even top 9 in world cricket. Sorry if I sound petty - my apologies.
