Only veteran Leke Odeye made an impression with a run-a-ball 27 for Nigeria.The response from Kenya was brutal as they scored 106 for two inside 13 overs.

It was the perfect start to the tournament, with all-round contributions.Arnold Otw (44) and Hamu Kayondo (30) lifted Uganda to 142 for seven despite the experienced Karabo Modise snaring three for 18.
