    113-8, the Podders/Bilbo combo strikes again.

    We need two more wickets, Sussex are requiring snookers.

    First ball, smack! Four.

    You've got to love Mitch, even though he isn't ours any more.

    Jack Harrison: I had to look up the last time a county won a match having lost only one wicket - turns out (ignoring rain-induced forfeits) it was when Warwickshire beat Gloucestershire at Edgbaston in 1974! This is a thrashing of historic proportions.

    You know Kent are dodgy in the fourth innings. Look what happened at Chelmsford last week. I reckon set them a target of 90 and they will be panicking.

    Phew! That was close!

    The mighty Kent win by an innings and 25 runs.

    New team tactics: only bat once so you don't have to worry about the fourth innings.

    Works a treat ... ;)

     Bell Drummond could be the man to
    miss out. He hasn’t really kicked on

    A lot depends on when Mrs Kuhn gives birth

    And if Denly is fit to bowl, we'll probably drop one of the spinners (say Qadri)

    Sussex's 332 is the highest total in first-class cricket by a team that lost a match in which they took 0 or 1 wickets.

    I have it on very good authority that Ollie Robinson has been rushed to hospital - with a bad case of "pad rash boredom" syndrome following his stint as next man in.

    Doubtless, given his talent, he will himself be passing this on to other members of the side soon enough!

    Billings was the next man in and sent a tweet asking for advice for pad rash. I’ve given you a lol though because you obviously didn’t see the tweet and would have lol’d it if I hadn’t seen the tweet

    I think I need to reassess the teams I support - Charlton & Sussex... It truly is a miserable existence  :D

    Tell me about it. I'm in the same boat (a sinking boat that is).

    Well you had your glory days in the 2000s when you won loads of trophies. Kent fans have to go back to the 1970s for such riches!

    Very true, but it lined up quite nicely with Charlton's capitulation, didn't know how good we had it!

    Kent’s Jordan Cox has been excluded from the Club’s next Bob Willis Trophy match against Middlesex starting on Saturday 15 August following a breach of the team’s COVID-19 protocols yesterday evening, after leaving the ground.
    Cox agreed to a request for a photograph to be taken with young fans which breached social distancing protocols.
    He will now commence a period of self-isolation and will have to test negative before he is able to re-join the squad.
    “I am very sorry that this has happened,” said Cox. “I fully understand the consequences, and I want to apologise to everyone.
    “I’m gutted to be missing the next match and feel like I have let the team down.”
    Director of Cricket, Paul Downton, said: “It is unfortunate for Jordan that on the back of an outstanding performance, our team medical protocols were breached.
    “We take these protocols very seriously and Jordan has no choice but to go into self-isolation.”
