    This could be a great day for Kent.

    Two matches to go after this. Glamorgan at Canturbury (a Charlton-sized banana skin?) then Warks at Edgbaston. That's a daunting last game and a great opportunity to eff it up at the last!

    Conversely, it could be virtually over, in our favour, b4 tbe last game !
  • Yep, it's shaping up to be a great day for Kent with all the results etc.

    Maybe this year it will really happen!

    122-9 :-)

    Still 200 required.
  • Kent should send Chris Rushworth a bottle of champagne, 8 wickets in the first innings, 4 and counting in the second!

    If we don't beat Glamorgan, I don't think we deserve to go up. Their record is truly dreadful.

    If Warwickshire win their next match, we can draw against Glamorgan and then lose our last game and go up.

    Barring the weather we will smash Glamorgan. Worse case scenario is a Sussex win and that would put us top ahead of the Warwickshire match.

    We're going up guys.

    21 points ahead of Sussex.

    If we win next week and Warks beat Sussex, the final game will be a big 4 day promotion party at Edgbaston for both sides!
  • Alternatively, if Sussex beat Warks and get more bonus points than us, it could be a very tense final match at Edgbaston...

    Surely we'll get enough batting points to cover it ...

    You mean that a Kent will last 4 days??

    I'll hopefully be able to get to Edgbaston for a couple of the days.

    Kent are like Charlton.

    It all looks straight forward but there could well be some curves in the road yet. Be it on the field or the vagaries of the weather.

    4 non results during a heatwave for example....

    As expected Kent have signed Matt Milnes from Notts on a 3 year contract:

    kentcricket.co.uk/news/kent-sign-paceman-matt-milnes/

    A 3 year deal is quite long for someone who's fairly inexperienced. Not sure we desperately needed another seamer, trying to think of anyone who might be leaving after this season
    Have we signed Dexter ?

    I hope not as I don't think we need an out of form 34 year old journeyman who turned down a 3 year contract to join Middlesex a decade ago is what we need.

    Yes I know Denly did this but he only left for 4 years before returning home at the age of 28.
