The first match of Group A saw [[Kenya cricket team|Kenya]] taking on the [[New Zealand national cricket team|New Zealand]]ers. Kenya won the toss and elected to bat first on a pitch which seemed to have a lot of runs. However, the New Zealanders started very well, restricting the Kenyans for runs throughout the first 6 overs. The pressure paid off as [[Tim Southee]] trapped [[Alex Obanda]] in front with the score at 16 after 7 overs. Fellow opener [[Seren Waters]] and [[Collins Obuya]] tried to rebuild but [[Hamish Bennett]] came into the attack and got Waters lbw to make the score 40/2. Bennett then ripped through the Kenyan batting and got 3 more wickets in double-quick time to reduce the Kenyans to 49/5. The shattered Kenyans then folded, with only [[Rakep Patel]] offering resistance with 16 not out as Southee and [[Jacob Oram]] finished off the tail to get Kenya all out for 69 in 23.5 overs. | |||
The New Zealand openers started off quickly in their small chase, with [[Martin Guptill]] doing most of the early scoring. [[Brendon McCullum]] was bowled off a free hit but got into his stride and finished off the game with two successive boundaries, as New Zealand reached their target in just eight overs without losing any wicket, to complete a ten-wicket win. | |||

England had to win the game to have any realistic chance of going through to the quarter-finals, and 243 all out looked like a difficult score to defend, especially with the poor fielding that had plagued England throughout the tournament. However, the West Indies collapsed to 225 all out, after a spectacular run out by Matt Prior. | |||
