First Final Match

Kenya v Zimbabwe

At Nairobi Gymkhana, Nairobi, October 18. Zimbabwe won by 82 runs, Kenya's target having been revised to 255 from 40 overs. Toss: Zimbabwe.

Rain brought Kenya's reply to a close ten overs early, when they were 109 adrift with just three wickets remaining. Their target was retrospectively revised to 255, so they had fallen 83 short. Odumbe alone had troubled the bowlers for any length of time. In Zimbabwe's innings, the Flower brothers scored their third century stand of the tournament. From this base, the other batsmen were able to play freely, and Campbell contributed a run-a-ball 51.

Man of the Match: A. Flower.
