In terms of World Cup upsets, where would you rate Kenya's victory over West Indies in 1996?
It was our first major win in world cricket. West Indies were idols for many of us in Kenya. They had huge names in that squad itself - you had Michael Holding as a commentator and Andy Roberts as manager. It was phenomenal for us, and it became news all over the world. I mean, news on CNN was a big deal those days.
