    Currently on a train to Broadstairs. At least I'll get some sea air before the torture tonight  :D

    Whilst we are at full strength.......

    Birmingham are certainly needy. Olly Stone and Henry Brookes are long-term absentees among their pace bowlers, Oliver Hannon-Dalby has had another setback, and Carlos Brathwaite, an integral part of their side in the group stages, has flown off to the Caribbean Premier League. And if Ryan Sidebottom ever hankered after adding to his solitary T20 outing, made last month, he is injured too.

    To encapsulate the Bears' constant run of misfortune, Dan Mousley, their promising spin-bowling batter, returned from a broken finger and duly smashed another one in fielding practice.

    No Stevens, Robinson or Stewart

    DBD
    Crawley
    Denly
    Billings
    Leaning
    Blake
    Cox
    Milne
    Milnes
    Qais Ahmad
    Klaassen

    Birmingham won the toss and put us in
  • Addick AddictAddick Addict
    We've basically sacrificed Stevens' ability with the bat and ball for Cox's fielding and potential big hitting at the backend. Means Denly and Leaning will have to share some overs.

    Looking forward to watching this on Sky tonight - hoping the Kent boys deliver 

    Disappointed no Stevens

    Signed up for Willow TV here so I can watch it properly, not have to find a dodgy stream. Come on Kent. :-)

    I'd forgotten what a dump the St Lawrence is!

    In the back row in front of the retirement flats. Lousy view, and I'm tall. Might have to stand!

    Messrs Crawley, Denly and DBD are dreadfully out of form or this pitch isn't all that

    Denly had an absolute shocker as did Crawley
  • Addick AddictAddick Addict
    Denly even played a forward defensive in the power play!
  • ross1ross1
    46-2. 6 overs
    DBD 26*. Billings 1*
    Crawley 4, Denly 11
  • Addick AddictAddick Addict
    180 is the par score here but I would probably take 160 on this
  • Addick AddictAddick Addict
    That's not a dismissal you see too often. Shame because DBD had got used to the track
  • CallumcafcCallumcafc
    Really unfortunate.
  • ross1ross1
    Kent Spitfires are 100 for 3 with 6.2 overs left
    DBD out for 53
    Billings 22*

    This pitch reminds me of when we prepared a bunsen burner for Lancashire's four spinners in the 2018 QF

    Leaning another one that just couldn't get going... 7 from 12... hoping Blake can inject a bit of urgency into the last 5 overs.
  • Addick AddictAddick Addict
    This pitch is awful. Watch the Bears now make it look like a road!

    162 doesn't appear to be too bad on that wicket. A little bit puzzled why we prepared a surface that favours the Bears strongest department though...
  • LordflashheartLordflashheart
    Quietly confident - reckon the wicket is bowler friendly 

    But we shall see ……

    Well you got thst pretty much spot on. Hope thsts enough, but it's going to need some tight fielding.
  • blackpool72blackpool72
    Going to be very close this.
    Hang on to yer hollyocks
