List Of Kenyan First-class Cricketers
This is a list of Kenyan first-class cricketers. First-class cricket matches are those between international teams or the highest standard of domestic teams in which teams have two innings each. Generally, matches are eleven players a side but there have been exceptions.

This list is not limited to those who have played first-class cricket for Kenya and may include Kenyan players who played their first-class cricket elsewhere. The list is in alphabetical order. {, class="wikitable" width="100%" , - bgcolor="#efefef" ! Name !! Career span !! Matches !!
