And the Afghans win by 7 wickets. They have some serious talent for sure.

Clear message here: DON'T UNDERESTIMATE AFGHANISTAN. But hey, at least Zim XI managed to hold out for a draw...

Day One close:

Kenya 91 (49.1 overs; Obuya 40, Berrington 3/13) & 323 (132.4 overs; Ouma 130, Nel 5/107)
Scotland 306 (116.1 overs; Sheikh 108, N Odhiambo 3/60) & 110/2 (32.2 overs; Lockhart 51*, Ngoche 1/17)
Scotland win by 8 wickets

Conveniently, Zimbabwe XI rise to 3rd in the table, thanks to Kenya's quotient getting worse as a result of the loss.

Oh my god Afghanistan beat canada by 6 wickets.after trailing by 302 runs.Afghan won.

So far Zimbabwe XI are the only side that Afghanistan have played in the competition and not beaten.

And, unless the rest of the cricketing world hasn't noticed yet: Don't underestimate Afghanistan!!
