Indian captain Sourav Ganguly has called on the International Cricket Council (ICC) to help out smaller cricketing nations such as Kenya by giving them extra international fixture.
Kenya had not played a one-day international for nearly 18 months prior to Saturday's 98-run defeat by India on Saturday in the Champions Trophy.
Zimbabwe are in turmoil and Bangladesh have struggled since attaining Test status and Ganguly believes the ICC could lend the so-called minnows a helping hand.
"It is for the ICC to look at, to try and accommodate them into a few tournaments. Teams like Bangladesh, Zimbabwe and a few others," said Ganguly after India had clinched a 98-run win over Kenya in the Champions Trophy on Saturday.
Kenyan captain Steve Tikolo blamed his side's display at the Rose Bowl on rustiness due to their lack of competitive action whilst Zimbabwe were comprehensively demolished by England at Edgbaston.
