    A sobering stat - the opposition have scored at least 400 in the first innings of 11 of our 12 matches. The only one they didn't do so in was the televised game against Lancashire which was our only victory of the season. In that match, Agar and Gilchrist took 15 of the 20 wickets to fall between them for just 193 runs.  
  • Notts and Lancs have both lost, in the battle to join us. Lancs lost to Durham who are probably safe now. Warks vs Worcs is heading for a draw.
  • Leaning and Finch need to dig in for two sessions.

    Corrected
  • Innings defeat avoided! 199/5
  • And half century for Leaning off 105 balls
  • Decent partnership of over 100 from this pair, just wish they’d done it in the first innings instead of this one 
  • Finch now reached his 50 off 104 balls. 261/5 with a lead of 65
  • Tea - Leaning and Finch (94 & 56 respectively) have batted the whole session for a lead of 72. If we bat for another 20 overs that will be enough to save the game. 


  • Raining in Dartford - just need the wind to blow it down to Canterbury

  • 100* (159) for Leaning

    149 partnership

    Finch 69* (134)


  • 287-5 and a lead of 91. Even Kent will do well to lose this now!
  • Oops! Leaning's out!
  • There are probably 30 overs to go 
  • Elsewhere Surrey are Boycsballing their way to a draw at Somerset, rather than chasing a win.

    They needed 221 off something like 70 overs originally. A lot of teams get that in a T20 these days!
  • Leaning out for 100 (161)

    Somerset are 2nd in the league. 
    No point in going for a win and risking a defeat. 
    Adraw will do nicely. 
  • Boring, boring Surrey!
  • Fair play to Somerset they put on 91 for the final wicket. 
    That effectively ended any chance of a run chase

  • Stobo out

    306-7

    Lead of 110 with approx 25 overs to go
  • How much do Hants want the win? If we get skittled for another 40 or so it could be tight 
  • An interesting suggestion...


  • An interesting suggestion...


    That’s what I was thinking! Would Hants go all out for it though? If they do and it goes well we’ve lost 8 points, if they lose a couple of wickets surely they’ll just play for the draw? 
  • Parkinson out

    321-8 for a lead of 125 with about 21 overs to go
  • Surrey 90 off the bat in 60 overs. That'll bring the crowds back!!!
  • Finch takes a single off the first ball of the over thus exposing Garrett and now Jas to the bowling

    326-9 and a lead of 130
  • What an absolutely stupid decision that was. What on earth was the point of taking the single off the first ball? Amateur stuff once again 
  • Meanwhile Surrey are now 7 down, with Vaughan getting 10 in the match, and doing a Fanny rain dance.
  • ANOTHER 5 fer for Vaughan. Hard to see Bashir doing any better.
