Those Kent bowling figures are underwhelming. Quite democratic that 1 umpire (Tredwell) is ex Kent, while the other is ex Sussex!
I always find preseason cricket games even more of a tough judge than preseason football esp with expanded sides. Kent I assume have Wes Agar to add to that side? Sussex have Dan Hughes and Jayden Seales to come in as overseas.
Do agree that Kent attack looks a quality bowler light even with Wes to come. Parkinson will probably be the main threat
Bringing in 2 overseas bowlers is quite an investment in the early season. I guess we want to get off to a good start, and hope Parky can come into his own from June onwards.
A bit odd that Cohen is training in S Africa away from us.

With Rogers that makes four in total but, presumably, we are making a saving on Agar not being with us for those first two months. Cohen training in S. Africa is strange but that might have something to do with us knowing that he probably won't be fit for the start of the season and not wishing to interrupt what he is doing out in what are likely to be more cricket like temperatures.

Knowing Kent's history, Cohen will be fully fit in September, just before his contract expires!

Agar was originally due to come in April but will now be with is for June/July whereas Keith Dudgeon and Kashif Ali will be with us for April and May.
