PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad – West Indies coach Keith Arthurton is talking positively ahead of his side's semi-final clash with Malaysia today in the league championship phase of the CLICO International Under-15 cricket tournament.

West Indies rushed to a 3-0 record with a lopsided ten-wicket triumph over Kenya on Tuesday at Queen's Park Oval and Arthurton and his boys are anxious to step past their Asian opponents to go to the final.

"We are looking forward to going into the semi-final stage now," Arthurton said after Tuesday's flawless win.

The Windies had crushed Malaysia by 146 runs in the opening game of the Knockout competition two weekends ago and Arthurton – without being smug – hinted that he had no worries about the Caribbean side getting past them again.

"We have an idea what they are like so we are looking forward to playing them in Grenada," said Arthurton, a former West Indies batsman.

Set just 87 runs to beat Kenya, West Indies coasted to a facile victory with prolific openers John Campbell and Kraigg Brathwaite completing the job themselves, with innings of 43 not out and 37 not out, respectively.

Both have scored hundreds so far in the series and Arthurton believes they can shoulder the responsibility of taking the team through to championship success.
