    Essex 337-7 off their 50. Coles hit a six when he came in.

    Big ask to chase that in the dark in my opinion. Where's David Hughes when you need him?

    One for the oldies there....

    I remember it well - the game finished at almost 9.00 and it was the Gillette Cup Semi so was probably in September too!
    Bathe in a bit of nostalgia. Kent feature later too.

    I love the Glocs fielder barging the kids out of the way

    Jack Simmons hooking Mike Proctor in the dark before helmets were introduced, brave or stupid!

    Yet another failure for Billings, got no idea how he keeps getting picked for England
  • Making coles look like Brett Lee, 54/4 . game over.

    Don't want to see claydon anywhere near the team for the quarter final. Looks like it'll probably be Yorkshire away in the quarters.

    As ever our bowling resources are thin. We've tried a number of young bowlers over the years, but none have come through to challenge Claydon

    Do Kent need to win for a home tie?

  • Does anybody know how close we have to make it to finish above Essex on NRR?

    Longshot I know, but would love a home quarter final because I think it'll be played at Beckenham.

    85 - for 4 wickets (22.3 overs). Essex were 82-3 (19.6 ovs). Then 269-4 (44.6 ovs), two batsmen getting over 100. We know what Kent have to do

    Kent NRR is 0.507, Essex NRR is 0.453. The difference is 0.054 so if Essex can get 0.028 or better, they would jump above Kent.

    Given that every run scored affects NRR by 0.02 then I'm pretty sure we'd need to get 336.

    If Kent scored 336 then the Kent NRR would drop to 0.487 and the Essex NRR would rise to 0.473.
    If Kent scored 335 then the Kent NRR would drop to 0.467 and the Essex NRR would rise to 0.493.


    Hope I've worked that out correctly.

    Before the game, there wasn't much difference in the NRR (0.507 to 0.453) so it would have to be a narrow defeat

  • At least Surrey are out
  • Shame, was hoping for a Beckenham QF.

    Every cloud, Surrey are gone.

    Porter 4/37 quality
  • Heard BBC commentator say we are an all or nothing, often flat track bullying, batting side.

    Hard to argue.

    Away play off tie then against 2nd from northern group. Looks like Yorkies as Worc and Warwick (top 2 currently) play each other. Yorks have Northants to beat to qualify and come 2nd. We will be without Billings. However the real bonus is they would be without Root Bairstow Willey Plunkett and Rashid. Still a tough task.
    Can someone remind me how long we have Henry for?

    I'm sure Henry will stay for the knockout stage, I don't think NZ have any upcoming fixtures
