Thomas Odoyo Migai (born 12 May 1978) is a Kenyan former cricketer and a former One Day International (ODI) captain. He is a right-handed batsman and a right-handed medium-fast bowler,often regarded as the best bowler produced by Kenya in the international arena.
Having represented Kenya in the 1996 World Cup,Odoyo's performances have since been critical to the team. His powerful batting throughout the middle-order and his seam bowling have led to Kenyan commentators labelling him the "Black Botham". [1] Odoyo formed a bowling partnership with Martin Suji,and in 1997–98 set a then-world record ODI seventh-wicket stand of 119 with Suji's brother Tony.
He was the first player from a non-Test nation to score 1,500 runs and take 100 wickets in ODIs. [2] Though injury forced him out of the Carib Beer Cup in 2003–04,he played once again for the 2004 ICC Champions Trophy
Odoyo performed well in Kenya's tour of Zimbabwe in 2006. He scored a few runs and took 8 wickets in 4 matches as Kenya drew the series 2–2 with Zimbabwe. Odoyo was selected as captain of The Northern Nomads franchise in Kenya's domestic cricket competition the Sahara Elite League.
Odoyo was appointed the national cricket team's assistant coach under Robin Brown as well as head coach of Kenya national under-19 cricket team in September 2012. [3] [4]
In March 2016,Odoyo was named the interim head coach of Kenya national cricket team replacing Sibtain Kassamali. His support squad included former teammate Lameck Onyango [5]
In February 2018,Kenya finished in the sixth and last place in the 2018 ICC World Cricket League Division Two tournament and were relegated to Division Three. [6] As a result,Odoyo resigned as coach of the Kenyan team. [7]
