David Obuya

David Oluoch Obuya (born 14 August 1979) is a Kenyan former cricketer. He is a right-handed batsman and a wicket-keeper. Obuya first played cricket at the 1988 Under-19s World Cup, where he starred as an opening batsman. He also plays as a wicket-keeper.

International career
His one-day career was to follow three years later. He first represented the senior team on a tour of the West Indies in 2001, where once again he played as an opener, alongside Ravindu Shah. He played in the 2003 World Cup, where in the semi-final he set a record for the best eighth-wicket partnership in a match against India, beating the previous mark set by himself and team-mate Tony Suji.

Most recently, Obuya has played one-day cricket for Kenya against Bangladesh. His brothers, Kennedy Otieno and Collins Obuya, both play cricket in Kenya.

Obuya was the first player in history of T20I as well as in ICC World Twenty20 history to be dismissed being hit wicket, as he fell for a duck in that innings.

In October 2018, he was named as the head coach of the Kenya national cricket team, ahead of the 2018 ICC World Cricket League Division Three tournament in Oman.
