• Odumbe, incidentally became the only fourth all-rounder to achieve the feat of scoring a fifty and take a four wicket haul in a World Cup match after Zimbabwean Duncan Fletcher (69 not out & 4-42 v Australia in 1983); Englishman Ian Botham (53 & 4-31 v Australia in 1992) and Zimbabwean Neil Johnson (59 & 4-42 v Kenya at Taunton 1999).
• Odumbe's 4-38 was his best bowling in LOIs. He betters his previous best figures of 3-14 against India at Gwalior on 28-5-1998.
• Meanwhile, Steve Tikolo's 3-14 was also his best career figures in LOIs. His previous best was the 3-22 against Zimbabwe at Nairobi Gymkhana on 25-9-1999.
• Obumbe's four wickets takes his tally to 16, which makes him the highest wicket-taker for Kenya in the World Cup. He went past the tally of 12 wickets, which he jointly held with Thomas Odoyo, before this match.
• This win was Kenya's sixth against Bangladesh in seven LOI matches. However, this was Kenya's first win against Bangladesh since the latter became a Test playing nation.
• The man of the match award was Odumbe's fifth in 54 LOI matches. He now equals the tally of teammate Steve Tikolo (in 55 matches) to receive the most such awards for Kenya.
