	Jamaica Gleaner - Daren Ganga hits a ton - Monday \| August 13, 2001
		DAREN Ganga struck a century as West Indies played out a draw against Kenya in a four-day tour match yesterday after a day had been lost to rain.
		Ganga and Chris Gayle resumed the West Indies first innings at 117 for no wicket in reply to Kenya's 290 after heavy rains had washed out play on Saturday, making the draw virtually inevitable.
		"Ganga and Gayle confirmed their outstanding opening partnership which started in Zimbabwe, which I must say is good for the future of Windies cricket," West Indies manager Ricky Skerritt said.

		The hectic schedule then continues when Ganga leaves the United States and travels back to England to play for a professional team, which has not been disclosed; and if that wasn’t enough, Ganga is also on stand-by for the West Indies team.
		Despite the packed summer package, however, Ganga is of the opinion that this is what he needs to better prepare himself both mentally and physically.
