    I was there all day yesterday,a whole days cricket for £12 you cant argue with that.

    Interesting fInish in store - Kent need 92 more runs and Surrey five wickets. The key wicket will be Van Jaarsveld's - currently on 70. To date in the Championship he's batted 12 times - has two hundreds, five half-centuries, but four ducks.
  • LenGloverLenGlover
    70 needed to win still 5 wickets in hand.

    Van Jaarsveld and Geraint Jones batting. The ball is turning apparently so Kent will do well to win.
  • randy andyrandy andy
    42 to win now, Van Jaarsveld(90) and Jones(33) still there

    C'mon SUPERKENT!!!!

    21 to win, VJ now on 102

    Whatever happens VJ has scored two tons and taken 5 wickets in an innings in this game.

    I don't know if that is unique but there can't be many that have done that.

    Plenty have scored ONE ton and taken 5 in an innings but two tons and 5 wickets in an innings?

    Job done...VJ finished on 115 NO.

    Quality, well done Kent
  • BlackForestRedsBlackForestReds
    And they've done it - home by four wickets. Two unbeaten hundreds in a match to go with five wickets in Surrey's second innings by Van Jaarsveld.
  • addick1965addick1965
    Top stuff from VJ two tons and not out in both of them :)

    YESSSSS!!!!!

    Won by 4 wickets (260-6) VJ 115*
  • randy andyrandy andy
    Get in there! Kent won by 4 wickets

    Absolutely massive performance from Van Jaarsveld, 114NO in the first innings, 115NO in the second and bowling figures of 5 for 33 from 13 (3 maidens).

    I've got a feeling he's in my dream team, so a good few days for me!
  • LenGloverLenGlover
    Van Jaarsveld must be buying a jug after that!!
  • northstandstevenorthstandsteve
    we needed this one as we were 2nd from bottom although only 4 points seperated about 4 teams.

    By my reckoning that's 5 jugs he owes, 1 for each 50 and 1 for the 5for

    Plus an extra one for his best first class bowling figures.

    Still a long way to go this season but we really needed that to pull away fom the danger zone.
    Get in there my lovely Kentish Boys!!!!
  • bingaddickbingaddick
    Brillant result - the VJ show - what a performance!!!! I'd love to have been there.
  • BlackForestRedsBlackForestReds
    Kent up to fourth in the table - at least provisionally, and the defeat sends Surrey to the bottom. A real six pointer or whatever the equivalent cricketing expression is.

    Pretty tight at the top with a handfull of points separating the top few teams.
