Cricket Kenya has announced preparations for next year's World Cup will conclude in India by playing friendly matches against regional teams including Gujarat and Baroda.
They will then head to the UAE to take part in a training camp organised by the ICC which starts on January 28.
Cricket Kenya's chief executive Tom Sears said he hoped Jonty Rhodes, who worked successfully with the Kenyans earlier this year, would be in Dubai to link up again. "There's no doubt our players have learnt a tremendous amount from him and his input can make a real difference to our overall performance."
The team returns to India after Dubai for the tournament proper, and is likely to face West Indies and Netherlands in warm-up matches.
