EABL has committed to support Cricket Kenya with $445K (Sh 28 mil) over the next 4 years. This is about $110K per year. Not bad at all.
Now perhaps Kenya can play some cricket ! Maybe more than 1 game every 2 months!
Kenya already has Ihsan as their sponsor, and also the agreement with Nimbus Productions.

It was reported today that there are 7 different formats that boards would like to have, instead of the format that was tried in this world cup…
The comparison is almost always made with the success of the 20 20 world cup. It is not taken into consideration that the champions trophy in India, which was [...]
