GUERNSEY face their biggest challenge to date when they meet Kenya tomorrow. Kenya are widely regarded as the strongest nation outside the Test-playing countries.

They are currently ranked 12th in the world in one-day internationals. Tomorrow's match at the Sussex County Ground, Hove, is the equivalent of the island's football team taking on Romania.

Kenya have featured in every World Cup since making their debut in India in 1996. In 2003 in South Africa they surprised the cricketing world when they reached the semi-finals.
