       MSK Prasad has 4 victims in this game so far
       Prasad comes back, to thwart Bhardwaj's attempts at a 5fer
        presumably
  44.1 BKV Prasad to Sheikh, no run, slower one, slips out of the ball,
        goes down leg, probably goes above the waist and yet the umpire
        stays unmoved
  44.2 BKV Prasad to Sheikh, legbye: one run, even more slower one, goes
        off pad to sqleg
  44.3 BKV Prasad to MA Suji, one run, slow, slower and what now ?
        slowest, catches the edge to go past point, rolls to third man
  44.4 BKV Prasad to Sheikh, no run, that was 3 times faster than the
        previous 2 deliveries, at least, fired in to the offstump, misses
        the square drive
  44.5 BKV Prasad to Sheikh, no run, fulltoss pulled straight to midwicket
  44.6 BKV Prasad to Sheikh, OUT: slashed straight to MSK who does a
        Herschelle as he tries to throw away the ball even before he has
        it in control and it drops down, the 2 umpires confer and give
        SHeikh out, a strange decision though, would have been a very
        dodgy one

       Kenya get all out, MSK doesnt get 6 victims

Match State: India win by 58 runs

       India in with the best chance of getting into the finals, their NRR
        is definitely higher than RSA or ZIM
       India started off disastrously but Bhardwaj did very well, Ramesh's
        50 was handy even if it was slow
       The Kenyan innings never did take off after that 1st ball dismissal
       THe Man of the match and other ceremonies come up
       Odumbe comes up
       We're disappointed after the way we bowled initially
       we didnt bowl tightly in the slog overs
       We contained the batsmen very well early on
       We can definitely improve, a
       A tough one coming up against RSA
       Jadeja comes up to get the winners cheque
       Very good performance, we got stuck early on, Ramesh did very well
        to hang around there
       When me and Bhardwaj came in, the wicket had dried up
       Bhardwaj is a great prospect, he has shown that he has the ability
        to do well at the tpo       level
       We've to play well, we've been in the habit of losing things after
        doing well initialy
       THe Man of the match from the 5 commentators
       The one who made 41(30) and took3 wickets
       Vijay Bahrdwaj
       1000 US$ in only ihs 2nd ODI game
       I feel very happy for doing well for the country
       It was one of those days when everyhing went my way, I had my luck
       220 was a good total on this wicket
       I've always bowled well particularly in ODIs, too many good bowlers
        in my state side so I rarely get to bowl
       The wicket is a good oe for ODIs
       Thats it from us at CricInfo, join us tomorrow for Kenya v South
        Africa at 0630 GMT"
