Ugandan cricket team in Kenya in 1952

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Ugandan national cricket team toured Kenya in August 1952 and played one three-day match against the Kenyan team.[1] It was the first ever match between the two teams and part of a series of occasional matches against countries in east Africa which would eventually lead to a formal triangular tournament being introduced in 1967.
