After registering the highest score in T20 history, the Kenya cricket team added another feather their cap on the third day of the ICC World Twenty20 Africa B Qualifier on Tuesday.
While playing against Tanzania, Kenya bowled first and bundled them up for 118 in 19.4 overs. Left-arm orthodox bowler Shem Ngoche continued his phenomenal performance and picked up 3 wickets in his quota of 4 overs, leaking only 23 runs.
When it came to chase 119, the Kenyans did the job in just 8.3 overs. Batsman Rakep Patel turned out to be the wrecker-in-chief, smashing a fiery 72 off just 27 balls including 8 sixes and 5 fours.

That blew Tanzania out the park, as Kenya remain the only unbeaten side in the competition. Kenya win the game by 7 wickets with 69 balls to spare.
For Tanzania, Jatin Chandubhai remained the highest scorer who made a belligerent 52 from 38 balls.
After this astonishing victory, Kenya remain the table topper with 3 wins and 6 points in their kitty.
