    Make that 8 down and a lead of only 23 as Stevens is out for the match with concussion. Wish him a speedy recovery.

    Drizzly this afternoon according to the forecast, then dryer this evening. If this had been a normal day game, weather might have saved us, as a day/night game we may not be lucky

    Keep going @Fanny Fanackapan !

    They're off for rain at the moment and Notts need 75 if they get back on.

    Bad news Notts fans, the rain is still falling at Trent Bridge and overs are now being chalked off.

    If they get back on at 20:30 BST, there will be time for 10 overs.

    Kent players will be doing plenty of rain dances in the away dressing room.
    Not just the Kent Players :smile:

    That 51 for Milne may prove crucial, as without it Notts would probably have won before the rain break. Also another excellent innings by Rouse, hanging around for 108 deliveries, he's impressed me with his temperament with the bat

    Oh dear, covers coming off for an inspection. Hopefully to call an end to proceedings.

    PHEW !!!!!

    Think I deserve a medal !

    I'm now lying on the floor with an intravenous drip of Zinfandel rose in both arms.

    No thanks required, guys.

    Phew

    We do need to turn things around. Our last 3 matches have resulted in one close defeat and 2 unconvincing draws (one where we were down to the last pair, the other where the rain saved us)

    Beckenham week next week. Northants in a CC game from Monday and then Essex on 20-20 on Sunday. Remember us being awful v Northants last year with Duckett starring. Hopefully we can turn it around and get our season back on track. Will certainly make a visit for a couple of days.

    Kent's 2nd X1 wicket keeper/batsman Ollie Robinson (formerly Sidcup CC and Bexley CC but currently at Beckenham CC) received a call from David Graveney yesterday and has been called up for the England U19 squad for the series against India in July.

    Good luck to Ollie.

    Another product of the Kent wicket keeper production line!

    Bit of a surprise with our line up against Northants - Tredwell plays as does, instead of Milne, Shah (plus Denly as a third spin option) but, with no Stevens, our seam bowling attack looks rather light with just Coles, Claydon and Gidman. Hope we've prepared the wicket accordingly.

    Rouse keeps the gloves and Billings plays as a batsman.

    The team will be:

    Daniel Bell-Drummond, Sean Dickson, Joe Denly, Sam Northeast (c), Sam Billings, Will Gidman, Adam Rouse (w), Matt Coles, James Tredwell, Yasir Shah, Mitch Claydon

    Still need for it to turn like week old milk in the 4th innings though with our bowlers.
