A Symonds 32* (48b 5x4 1x6) IJ Harvey 24* (42b 4x4)

31.1 Karim to Symonds, one run, guides it to backward point and Karim's
figs are ruined, has given away another run!
31.2 Karim to Harvey, FOUR, full toss on leg and its sent to deep mid
wicket and Australi win by 5 wickets
A brilliant performance by Kenya especially spinner Karim who has

ended with 3 wicket in 8.2 overs and gave away 7 runs
The victory was certain but they did suffer some tension after the
scintillating start given by Gilchrist
Kenya should be well staisfied with this bowling performance

defending such a low total
The match was not as onesided as one may think, but Australia kept
their cool and played carefully to get home easily, more runs for
kenya would have been even more interesting
We hope you enjoyed this game and we would like to wish all the
teams in the semi-finals the best of luck, good night all
