    We've been celebrating the marriage of 2 of our group today ( and really great it was too !) so only saw 30 mins or so this morning & another 30 at the end of the day's play. 

    Sam NE not finding it a doddle at present, and it goes without saying, sadly, neither is Zak.....but another sterling performance for our 'keeper/batter- well done, Chris ! 

    So, a good day in my book & looking forward to another tomorrow.

    I've heard that a lot of people in Kent are currently suffering from unexplained nosebleeds. The medical experts have totally dismissed the theory that this has any connection whatsoever with their cricket team having had first innings leads in consecutive matches.

    39-2 (20.1) at lunch. A wicket each to Taylor and Cohen. Both caught by Dudgeon who has taken some very good low catches in this match at third slip. 

    A small word for Cohen too. It's clearly taken him time to get over his injuries and certainly when he returned at the end of last season he was spraying the ball a bit. To date in this innings he has returned the miserly figures of 5.1-2-4-1

    123-4

    A first wicket for Ekansh and a somewhat incredible catch for Cohen to get his second. Cohen finds the edge of Bracey's bat, the ball is parried by Northeast at second slip to Crawley at first who proceeds to catch the ball in his stomach!

    That's Co Co Streets second hundred of the season. Seb played with her brother, Ollie, throughout the Kent age group system. Lovely family. 
    Coco was eleven runs short today of making it three tons on the bounce. How long before Surrey come knocking?

    Are we capable of chasing 250 plus?

    I'm taking the 5th, Len. 

    REALLY pleased to see the wickets taken shared between our bowlers ( not your day, Dug...) 

    Beginning to feel more hopeful for the season ( What a mistaka to maka !)

    262 all out so Kent will need 261 to win

    That wicket went to Taylor to give him figures of 10-106 in the match. As the song goes "can we play you (Taylor) every week?"

    From being toothless as a bowling attack, all of a sudden, we look like we might have something about us. With a three-prong of Milnes, Dudgeon and Taylor plus any two others, that's as good as we've had in over two seasons.

    Dawkins caught at point trying to drive the ball for 7 (18). Crawley has come out punching with 15* (10)

    22-1

    I fear social media will have an absolute field day once they grab hold of that crawley dismissal, such a poor shot

    We need Northeast to take command and guide us to victory.

    Totally agree, AA.

    But what about our denture laden top order batters especially the openers ?

    Genuine question. Is Crawley still in line for an England call up and if so how? He seems to be out of his depth in a mediocre division 2 county side.

    0% chance they pick him. They have to be seen to make some changes and he is entirely going to be a or the fall guy.

    Muyeye looking good here again. Mostly controlled shots and a few boundaries.

    The only surprise will be if they go McKinney over Gay as Crawley's replacement. It'll be one of those two I'd say, followed by Tribe, and Rishi Patel as rank outsider (Rew will not be called up as opener imo)
