Great start for Kent!
25-3 at one point but now 60-3 with DBD and Blake repairing the damage

117/4, DBD on 52no0

129/6 rouse out for 2. Time to drop him, looks horribly out of form. Bring in young Ollie Robinson, what harm can it do1

129-6 DBD 58*0

Having known Ollie since he was born I would love to see that happen and think that it will sooner than later.000__Jaaaaay__000 said:129/6 rouse out for 2. Time to drop him, looks horribly out of form. Bring in young Ollie Robinson, what harm can it do
However, I think we might be making Rouse (who is batting at 7) a scapegoat for our batting failings - those batting ahead of him include the likes of Crawley (123 in 9 innings), Dickson (203 in 10 innings), Denly (129 in 8 innings not including meaningless game against Pakistan), Stevens (25 in 5 innings) and even DBD (181 in 8 innings prior to today) have all been poor so I wouldn't even rule out Rouse keeping the gloves and Ollie coming in as a top 5 bat if things carry on as they are.0 -
150-8 DBD 68*0

150-8 after 34. We'll be lucky to bat 40 overs, never mind 500
-
162-8 off 38
Looks like we've played their spinners, Briggs and Wells, as if they were Murali and Warne - figures of 20-1-53-5 between them.0 -
165/9 grim

About par for our innings this season.0

I think we're treating this like a Championship innings - under no circumstances are we allowed to get above 200.2

188 all out
DBD made 900 -
It was a poor batting performance by Kent aside from Bell-Drummond’s very steady innings. Kent seemed to be caught between rash shots and trying to be cautious. Still, 188 may be enough with Sussex’s iffy batting.1

19-2
One each to Claydon and Henry0 -
I see Qayyum got the nod for the spinner slot. Tough competition for Riley and Tredders to get any form of first team cricket at the moment0
-
113/2, and Stevens only brought on in the 25th over, he clearly can't be fit0

Henry gets Wells. I did wonder if Henry should have come back 20-30 runs ago0

Sussex won by 7 wickers with 10 over left. What the hell is going on with our batting at the moment?0 -

Piss poor effort.0 -
Poor scoring rate as well0

It was strange. I was at Canterbury for part of the County Championship game and at Hove today. I am Sussex supporter, but I thought Kent were buzzing in the 4-day game and fully deserved their win but they looked lacklustre today - some of the dismissals were poor given the state of the game. I suppose you might say that Sussex wanted it more today.0

Middlesex 157-1 after 23ish overs. Flat pitch and innocuous bowling0

266-6 of 42, a bit of a collapse!1

102-5, rubbish batting again. The only solace is the sun and the ales. ..0

How did we honestly expect to improve from last years shambles by only replacing northeast for Kuhn? Serious questions need to be asked0

The frustrating thing is that many batsmen have gone backwards since last season, with Denly contributing more with the ball than the bat at the moment.000__Jaaaaay__000 said:How did we honestly expect to improve from last years shambles by only replacing northeast for Kuhn?

It was so frustrating the way the spinners tied us down, there's no invention in the way we play them1
