Bermudian cricket team in Kenya in 2006–07

The Bermudian cricket team toured Kenya during the 2006–07 season. The tour began on 5 November 2006 and lasted until 14 November 2006. The tour began with a drawn Intercontinental Cup match, followed by a 3 ODI series which was won comprehensively by Kenya 3–0. It was a must win for both teams, as the World Cup was only four months away, and this series would give the selectors an opportunity to figure out the squad to send to the World Cup. Kenya left with a good indication as to what their team was, but Bermuda left with many more questions than answers.
