Shyam Sundar was on fire as Stray Lions went on the rampage with a nine-wickets win over Ruaraka Sports Club in a Nairobi Provincial Cricket Association (NPCA) Super T20 league at Sir Ali Club at the weekend.

Sundar scored a century as he led Lions to their 12th win, which saw them seal a place in the last four.

Lions have been in superb form and remain unbeaten as the T20 challenge draws close to the knockout stage. Captain Maurice Odumbe said their approach has been different from the rest.

"We have been able to remain focused because of our 'one match at a time approach'. We do not worry about winning the trophy, we concentrate on results," Odumbe said.
