New Zealand v Kenya: In St Lucia, the African side win the toss and decide to field as they look to go top of Group C
The decision pays off almost immediately when Thomas Odoyo claims the wicket of Lou Vincent in the first over
The loss represents only a blip for the Black Caps as Stephen Fleming and Ross Taylor build a century partnership
Fleming reaches a personal score of 60 before attempting the almost impossible and gets run out leaving his side on 111-2
Taylor continues to lead the charge and notches his third ODI half century during the 27th over
He goes for 85 before Scott Styris and Craig McMillan form another useful partnership to take the team past 200
Styris is out for 63, while McMillan goes on to make 71 as New Zealand make a grand total of 331-7 off their 50 overs
Kenya's reply begins badly with David Obuya given out lbw for one off the bowling of Michael Mason
Another three wickets tumble as the bowlers take full control - James Franklin unseats Tanmay Mishra to make it 29-4
Daniel Vettori's dismissal of Ravi Shah for 71 is crucial and New Zealand win by 148 runs
Scotland v South Africa: The European minnows are made to bat and put on 35 before losing Majid Haq in the 12th over
Fraser Watts, his fellow opener, makes 24 before edging Charl Langeveldt to slip two overs later as Scotland start to wobble
Captain Ryan Watson comes in at three but can only watch as Gavin Hamilton and Neil McCallum depart cheaply
Watson and Colin Smith also succumb leaving Warwickshire player Dougie Brown to take charge of affairs in the middle
Andrew Hall runs out Paul Hoffman off the final ball of the innings as the Scots make 186-8, Brown posting 45 not out
South Africa's target of 187 looks to be a meagre one as Graeme Smith and AB de Villiers reach 121 off just 15 overs
De Villiers falls in the next over - he hits two sixes before being caught by Brown for 62 as he goes for a third
The impressive Smith notches 91 runs - including 13 fours and a six - to nudge South Africa closer to the finish line
Justin Kemp (r) gets the winning runs and South Africa seal a seven-wicket victory that takes them into the Super 8 phase
