4:36 PM So that's it with the sun still beating down in Mombasa and the humidity still very, very high. Until Monday morning, hopefully at 6.30GMT, this is Ian Callender signing off and hoping for a better performance next time from Ireland
4:34 PM No surprise that Tanmay Mishra has received that award. From the off, his was the class innings of the day. The only surprise was he got only two fours in his first 50 but four more after that saw Kenya home with a huge 44 balls to spare. Just as well Stirling got Ireland off to a fast start or the defeat would have been even more embarrassing but his dismissal was a portent of what was to follow. A lot of poor shots after getting set - much like the I-Cup game. Fittingly the game ended with a wide and when was the last time Ireland had 20 bowling extras in an ODI. Definitely a day to forget and maybe it's just as well they have only to wait a couple of days to get this one out of their system
4:29 PM Man of the match ceremony taking place at the moment
4:28 PM Not a game to remember for Ireland. Not enough runs and, obviously not enough wickets. It's a first defeat in the World Cricket League Championship and their first setback on the road to Australia 2015. They could, of course, have lost the four-day game as well and they are definitely going to have to get their batting sorted out for Monday when the second ODI takes place back here in Mombasa
