Shahid Afridi Took five wickets as Pakistan completed a resounding 205-run World Cup Group A win over Kenya.
Captain Afridi's 5-16 are the best World Cup figures by a Pakistan bowler on his team dismissed Their Group A opponents for 112 in Hambantota.
EARLIER, Umar Akmal's 71 from 52 balls was complemented by Kamran Akmal (55), Younus Khan (50) and Misbah-ul-Haq (65) in a total of 317-7.
Kenya conceded 37 runs as wides, a joint world record for ODIs.
That unenviable record is shared with the West Indies, WHO squandered runs off 37 balls against Pakistan wide in Brisbane 22 years ago.
The performance compounded by Yet Another miserable day in the field for Jimmy Kamanda's team just Three Days on Their 10-Wicket thrashing by New Zealand.
They Lost Their final seven wickets for just 39 runs as Afridi ran through the tail, with four Kenya batsmen dismissed for ducks.
