Bangladesh in Kenya 2006

The one-day international series between Kenya and Bangladesh has been postponed by a further three weeks due to lack of sponsors. The three match series was originally set for Nairobi from July 19 to 23.

Cricket Kenya (CK) chief executive Tom Tikolo said they required about 13 million shillings ($176,000, 138,500 euros) to host the series, with half of the amount raised through television rights and the rest through sponsorship or Cricket Kenya. "Now, we don't have enough money. But we are talking to a few sponsors. We are still discussing with them and hopefully we will reach a deal within the next two weeks," Tikolo said.
