8.39 pm West Indies fight back after a middle-order collapse to post a very competitive total in an opening round where chasing has been very difficult. Charles makes 45 at the top of the order but a very valuable 28 from Powell and 23 not out from Hosein. This match is shaping up to be a classic. Stay tuned for the start of the chase when Matt Roller returns to the central commentary position.
James: "JKR - Bermuda's plummeting fortunes are also worth mentioning". Bermuda's case is not comparable. They made a lone appearance in a World Cup in 2007. Kenya went to five World Cups in a row, including a semi-final, and were given "permanent ODI status" by the ICC in that stretch, which is obviously not so permanent anymore.
