Kenya set Bermuda a formidable target on the first day of their ICC Intercontinental Cup semi-final in Namibia, amassing 403 runs for six wickets with captain Steve Tikolo smashing 220 runs.
Bermuda were 13-1 in reply after opener Curtis Jackson was out for a duck.
Tikolo's double century came off 233 balls, including 27 fours and just one six at the United Ground in Windhoek.
He was ably supported by H.S. Modi, who was just two runs short of his own century when Kenya declared after 89.5 overs.
Bermuda's spin bowlers Dwayne (Sluggo) Leverock and Hasan Durham were Bermuda's workhorses, returning figures of 105-1 off 23 overs and 108-1 off 26.5 overs respectively. Durham was also the bowler when two of Kenya's batsmen were run out.
