Karl on ... a strange declaration
In the first semifinal of the ICC Intercontinental Cup Kenya are playing Bermuda. Hitesh Modi, a 34 year old Kenyan who has been a mainstay of their middle order since the early 1990s, must have thought his day had finally come on the first day of the match. Just after his captain Steve Tikolo had scored 220, Modi looked to be getting his maiden first-class century. Then the captain declares, at 403/6, with about 15 overs to play in the day and with Modi on 98. There's no commentary on the game, so I don't know what Modi did to annoy his captain so much!

The first innings of Intercontinental Cup matches is limited to 90 overs. Modi had lost the strike with only one ball left to be bowled.
Cheers Andrew - that clears it up for me. I notice in the final against Ireland, he scored 108 and Tikolo scored 177.
