we should also commend Northeast who, since the second half of last season has started to confirm the potential he showed as an under age cricketer - 777 runs so far this season in the CC at an average of 86.33
They have still to get 9 runs. Would settle for a tie at this stage.
Talk about "waving the white flag". We open with Adam Ball and Sam Northeast and they get them off 10 balls. There's absolutely no hope when you don't give yourselves a chance to win!
Not only was that a Kent record 8th wicket stand of 222 but Tredwell's 124, in addition to it being his highest ever score in all forms of cricket, but was the best ever for a Kent no. 9

More's the pity that the rest of the team didn't weigh in with something worthwhile....
...especially the likes of Denly.
But of course they're saving themselves for tomorrow & Friday nights' T20s....

Northeast 145* (287)
Tredwell 118* (240)
Unbeaten partnership of 209 does beg the question how the first seven only made 59 between them!
If we bat for another three hours we will save the game!
I still refuse to get my hopes up as this is Kent we are talking about.
50 strike rates, nothing wrong with that!
350-8 and 12 behind
I watched Rabada have a net last Thursday and I was very impressed. I predict a ton for him and we save the game... :-)
356-9 and still 6 behind so an innings defeat still possible.
368-9 and a mighty six runs ahead.
(Can't really criticise Tredwell).
Claydon's was on the last ball of the over.
Still, the game wasn't lost by them I suppose.
