National men’s cricket team coach Thomas Odoyo has said that his players have improved especially after playing friendly matches in India.

The team played four friendly matches against Baroda Cricket Association select sides in Vadodara India in preparation for the ICC World Cricket League Championships match against Nepal tomorrow.

They won three and lost one to the region’s under-23 side. Odoyo told Feverpitch that the players did not only improve but also gained confidence. “There is great improvement because the players exhibited growth with every match they played and after the three victories they have gained confidence.
