Kenya names squad named for UAE I Cup and One Day Matches

Cricket Kenya has named a 14 man squad to play in the One Day fixtures and ICC Intercontinental Cup match against United Arab Emirates at Nairobi Gymkhana from 25th July. Chairman of Selectors Alpesh Vader said: 'This is a new look squad with some players being offered the opportunity to show what they can do at this level. The fact that some players have rejected new contracts and made themselves unavailable presents others with their chance.'We have a blend of players who have been involved with the squad for some time, players who have shown good form in domestic cricket and deserve a chance at this level and some who were not recently offered contracts and have a point to prove.'All the players selected have the ability to perform at this level and cement their place in the squad.
The squad is as follows:

Collins Obuya (captain)

Runish Gudka

Hiren Varaiya
