The Indian-born Hansra, who came in to bat with the team reeling at 48-3, put on 132 for the fourth wicket with his captain Ashish Bagai to ensure the efforts of fast bowler Henry Osinde (4-26) did not go to waste.
Bagai remained unbeaten on 64 off 97 balls with seven fours.
"I was disappointed in myself and my team over the last three or four games so it was good to get some runs under the belt. Jimmy played a fantastic knock with me and both of us did a great job to get us over the line," said Bagai.
Disappointed Kenyan skipper Jimmy Kamande said: "We started off very, very badly and I thought it was a good recovery."
He added that at one stage he thought they could post 220 or 230, which would have been defendable.
