Kent Cricket 2025

7 matches being played today. It was sadly inevitable who the first batsman to be dismissed would be.

Solid start here 

fenaddick

DBD back in the pavilion for 5 (13). 19/2

fenaddick

Worth having a look at the Somerset pitch if you get the chance. Basically indistinguishable from the outfield 

Addick Addict

44-3. Compton shoulders arms to one that nips back for 14 (56)

Leaning needs to step up, has been a passenger for so many games now and needs replacing if he doesn’t get anything again

off to lords but won't get there until lunchtime

With our normal approach to batting you should arrive just in time to watch the Middlesex first innings.

Only Compton and Muyeye of our top 7 have justified their place this season to date. Averages:

Compton     66.16
Muyeye        55.60
Crawley       25.16
Finch           23.40
Evison         14.60
Leaning       13.00
DBD               9.42

Addick Addict

Muyeye caught at gully on the stroke of lunch for 29 (53). Leaning is 21* (40)

75-4 (28.3)

Addick Addict

Brilliant catch at gully by Higgins (again) sees the end of Leaning for 26 (50). 

80-5

Have we got any batting points yet? 🤣

Are we liable to finish with the lowest batting points this season?

Another great day watching Kent. 90-6.

Addick Addict

90-6 Evison LBW for 5(13). Looked a harsh decision.

Richards has come in at 8

And promptly drives one straight to cover for a three ball duck

91-7

Genuinely pathetic, every single year it’s the same story but yet we end up with exactly the same batting line up again 

Addick Addict

It's a good job we can't follow on!

LenGlover

Yet again sub standard first innings batting. Not sure our bowling is up to dismissing Middlesex for a low score though this time so a draw will probably be a good result if we can eke one out.

Addick Addict

Benjamin gone, caught behind, throwing his hands at a very wide delivery for 9 (22)

102-8 (39)

Addick Addict

Garrett caught fishing at slip for 5 (17)

112-9 (45)

Rowland-Jones was unfortunate to only get 4 caps, a combination of badly timed injuries and stiff competition for bowlers of his type.

Addick Addict

And now Kashif Ali is struck on the arm. Hope he will still be able to not just carry on batting but also bowl without hindrance. 

Addick Addict

Parkinson snaffled down the legside trying to pull a short ball for 17 (50). Kashif 10* (16).
129 all out (50.3)

Addick Addict

Our scores this season:

231 all out
171 all out
218 all out
316-2
393 all out
124-6
129 all out

So, we've only turned up twice in seven innings with Compton (2) and Muyeye (1) hitting tons in those

LenGlover

Pathetic.

fenaddick

Garrett gets Eskinazi for 6. 15/1

Addick Addict

Garrett has Robson LBW

22-2

Addick Addict

One to Evison - yet another catch by Leaning. That's his ninth of the season which is more than our wicket keepers have taken in total. 

65-3

Addick Addict

Richards is all over the place. He's gone for 21 in his three overs but another two balls have been given as four byes each when he was lucky to get away with them not being given as 10 wides in total

79-3 (21)
