Given the overall performance of the Kenyan in the recent series against Zimbabwe, inshaallah, we will win 4-0.
We must win 4-0 for the Champions Trophy qualifying matches. A 3-1 will be sufficient though.

After reading the following article, It became clear to me why we had to Play with Kenya and why Zimbabwe WERE reluctant to participate in a triangular series.

Upon reading the affore cited qoute from Zobair, Kenyan captain Tikolo muttered something unintelligible in a undetermined language. NSA experts howevr are 99% confident that loosely translated he said : Orey bap re bap...

hehe...seems like I may have come off too strong with my words. I meant no disrespect to the Kenyans. Its just that I genuinely think ours is a much more improved ODI outfit, beginning to really milk the home advantage factor (instead of crumbling under 'home' expectations), confident in their abilities, and the current bunch has seen unprecedented success as a team for good 15 months now. The Kenyans are still looking to rebuild their team, after whole cricket crisis in that country (inept administration and match-fixing) and I will keep it at that. Kenya's best shot will be the first match of the series since we are still notoriously unsure starters.

Dont under estimate Kenya....and as we all know...BD batting is never consistent. So I should not be surprised if we loose by 3-1.
However, I can almost say that we will wipe kenya off by 4-0 if and only if we can show more consistency(in batting) in our next test match...ie.... 250+ in both innings

Zimbabwe vs. Kenya Series Review
What this did show was that these two sides are probably scrapping for 10th and 11th places in the world rankings. The series between Bangladesh and Kenya later this month should confirm that there is now a big and growing gulf between the Bangladeshis and the two African countries.

I don't think only Tikolo can make the difference. Bangladesh has progressed well in recent days and I believe there is guld of differences in quality of cricket between Bangladesh and Kenya. We should win 4-0. Kenya has got a very poor first class or domestic facility and almost no finances in cricket. I don't think Kenya will be playing test in coming five years.
Certainly Bangladesh will take the series.

I don't know we would win 4-0 or not, but we SHOULD, no doubt about that. kenya is no match for us anymore, and we need to prove that. but again, we are the one who lost to canada, and that is the reason I can't say we will win all 4 for sure.

Our rating will be 24. Kenya's 7. (ICC calculator)
matches winning within the last year weighs more point than the the previous two years. Anything before that will not be counted.

How about labelling our U19 team as national team for the Kenya series only coz it gonna be a big big big shame loosing to kenya, they dint earn test status....loosing to a non-test playing nation is big shame for ny country playing test....and plus if our national team looses to kenya, it will be mentally very bad for them...
So, if its our u19..we gonna win for sure...4-0 and that very convincingly...if it our national team, we may loose one and also even if we win we wont win convincingly....
So, let us play our u19 against Kenya...
i dont mean to bring our u19 to national team forever...jst when its kenya we r to play or zimbo, make our 19 play them....

so you really think our under-19 team is stronger than our national team?? Cuz if our national team can't beat them 4-0, how can you expect our under-19 team to do so?? :duh:

Its not about thinking...Most people will agree with the fact that u19 will thrash Kenya. U19 as team is excellent...our national team as a team aint that great...and our captain..bashar is not a guy who'z got some killer instinct...i would actually like to include mashrafee and rasel in u19 in place of those two pacers in u19 coz mash and rasel are better than them....

I am not so sure how many people will agree with you.... obviously under-19 are doing quite well but mind you... they are not playing australia or South african national team... under-19 standard is much lower than the international level...

Why Kenya is not playing BD-A or a BCCI-11? Make it a 3 match series and make them play two parctice matches before the real one. That will be win-win situation. Kenya will have prictice and if we happen ro beat then in those the senior boys will not have a little less pressure.
Mind you, this game brings more pressure than that of playing against a test nation. Mind set will be that we cannot afford to loose. On the other hand, Kenya has nothing to loose or at least not much too loose.

Mentally this team towers over the team that played the 2003 world cup.
The pace trio we have now+Aftab, give us the trump card that we didn't have then.
I can't wait for the series. I don't know why you guys are so afraid. Don't think like the 2003 world cup players.

They (Kenya) are not even half of the team they were from 2003. Losing to Zim's current team even one game should tell you the story. I can wait to read all the articles after the kenyan ODI series.
