Former Kenya captain Aasif Karim, 58, is pleased to be back in Mumbai, a city that holds happy memories of the team’s ICC World Cup debut tournament in 1996. It was here that the Kenyan team played practice games ahead of the mega event in which they inflicted a shock defeat on former champions West Indies at Pune on February 29, 1996.

Karim, who is currently the chairman and chief organiser of the Kenya International Sports Film Festival, was in Juhu on Wednesday, as a special invitee for the screening of a sports film in Malayalam—Madappally United.
