Kenya's New Strip.


Well, we have a new sponsor (IHSAN Sports), so it is not surprising that the National team now has a new strip. So far, the only photos I've come across are the ones on cricinfo:

Interesting that there is no black or red in it to make up the full colours of the National flag. Not that it is a necessity to have them, just unusual not to. On the whole, I think it is an improvement on the Off Green, and 'Pixie' outfits we wore in the last two World Cups. It has a slightly more 'take me seriously' attitude about it. With the other strips, one could be forgiven for thinking we were just along for the ride. This strip looks more like it means business. Lets hope some of that rubs off onto the players wearing it.
