Janeiro Tucker made 50 and David Hemp 41 as Bermuda fought back from an early loss to record a defendable 183. Having won the toss and elected to bat, Bermuda were once again on the back foot as Thomas Odoyo struck early to remove both Kwame Tucker and Steven Outerbridge. Dean Minors however kept the run rate ticking along with Irvin Romain until Hiren Varaiya again took 2 wickets in his first over removing both batsmen and swinging the momentum back Kenya's way. Unlike yesterday where one wicket lead to a collapse, this time Bermuda fought back. David Hemp finally found some of the form that earned him selection with a well crafted 41, only ended by the return of Thomas Odoyo to the attack. The Kenyan all-rounder struck again shortly after to have Saleem Mukaddem caught by Ongondo and Bermuda again looked wobbly. Janeiro Tucker had other ideas and aided by Jones started to up the run rate. For Kenya, the three main bowlers, Odoyo, Ongondo and Varaiya all bowled well, but lacked the neccessary ecomomy from the support crew. Only Nehemiah Odhiambo made a difference clean bowling both Jones and Tucker, but not before they had taken Bermuda to a competetive total. To be fair on the other bowlers, only Tony Suji was really taken to the cleaners and he only bowled one over. Jimmy Kamande, who bowled 2 overs for 13 runs could be forgiven for wondering why he did not get more after yesterday's performance, especially as Steve Tikolo bowled 9 overs and conceding 46 runs.

While competetive, Bermuda's target should be easily reachable should the Kenyans bat to their potential. The hosts only require 4.38 per over which they achieved yesterday against the same attack at the same venue. Bermuda will no doubt be bouyed by their improved performance, but Steve Tikolo and his men have the talent and experience to successfully chase this total. Updates will continue on the Cricket Europe - Kenya page as the afternoon unfolds.
