Under 17 Trials next 3 days

Trials for the national Under 17s team will be held at Ruaraka Sports Club over the next three days as Cricket Kenya look to name a side to play in the Africa zone finals at the end of the month. Kenya will host the three team event which also includes Namibia and Ghana who won their respective regional tournaments.

After the dissapointment of the U19 and U13 teams earlier this year, this is a chance for Kenya's young cricketers who have undoubted talent to show their worth.

Below is the Cricket Kenya press release:
