The Kenyan cricket team toured Canada between 29 July and 6 August 2006. The two teams played a Group B match in the 2006–07 ICC Intercontinental Cup and 2 One-day Internationals.
This was originally scheduled to be a triangular series between Bermuda, Canada and Kenya.[1] However, after Kenya rescheduled their ODIs with Bangladesh due to their lack of financial backing, they also cancelled their matches against Bermuda.[2] The ODI series followed the Intercontinental Cup tie between the two nations, which Canada shaded by 25 runs; however, in the short form, Kenya won after bowling Canada out for 129 in the first match and 94 in the second.
