    "Resuming at 299-6, Kent lost their remaining 4 wickets without adding to their overnight total."

    Kent 2s beat Surrey in their 4-day game by 100 runs.  

    Evison seems to have taken the saying "bad balls get bad wickets" to the very extreme!

    Dudgeon caught behind without adding to his overnight score

    Kent's innings has been a fearful one for those that are of a superstitious disposition. Both Compton and Muyeye made 13 and Northeast was out on what is considered an unlucky number (87) by Australians in being 13 short of his ton.

    Our number 12, Extras, is facing a nervous time in being left stranded on 49*  
    Compton 13
    Muyeye 13
    Northeast 87
    Dudgeon 13

    336-7 hopefully can scrape together the 14 runs required for a 3rd batting point at the very least.

    I don't think I've heard as many appeals as I have so far today. The ball has been doing a lot all day and for that reason 350 would be a decent score providing, of course, the pitch doesn't start to flatten out. In which case, it would be our own fault for electing to bat!
    And it definitely is a decent score.

    I think that’s a superb effort by Kent. The wicket has certainly given a lot of encouragement to the seamers and it will be interesting to see if the spinners can exploit it as the game goes on.

    Brilliant one-handed catch at third slip by Muyeye, diving at third slip, to snaffle Robson off the bowling of Milnes

    Holden has just come into bat. Like, Muyeye, was sitting on the bench in The Hundred and has had one day of cricket in the last 40 days during what is the height of the summer. How did English cricket get into this state?

    At least the Ashes tests next year don't seem to have been compromised too much (for the abomination)

    Don't think it is right that there is no test in the north though

    This is excellent bowling, and shows how really well Kent did to get 350.

    Cracknell dropped at slip off Ekansh. Sharp chance but might have been taken nevertheless.

    Bosch has sustained an injury and although he is carrying on batting, the likelihood is that he a like-for-like replacement bowler will come in for him.
