Missed the Surrey innings as my fkight was late but strange ground - like a hotpotch of sone new but mainly old stands but i woukd like one of those apartments overlooking the ground.
It may be a bit of a dump..........but it’s our bit of a dump.
Like a pair of favourite tattered slippers you just don’t want to, or simply can’t, get rid of.1 -

Momentum.Theres 9 teams in each league - does that not mean 16 games ?? Or is it some stupid plan that you dont play all teams home and away?
So, reading between the lines, its 14 games ? - in which case isnt that a bit unfair on the teams that have had to play Sussex twice against the 2 teams that have only had to play them once?
Looking at the Table, if we do win and get to 14 points, then i suppose its quite possible that both Kent and Surrey *could* qualify - if you beat Gloucs, and Somerset dont win their last one, then its quite a possibility - a slim one, but it is possible.
EDIT: Gloucs have to play Kent and Sussex both away, so its possible for them to drop out, plus Somerset have to play Middx. So its looking a bit more rosier than i thought - however NRR not in our favour.

I don't think the same as you on who will qualify though!0 -

Looks tough for Surrey to qualify given they only have one game left. Somerset play Middlesex so one of them gets to 15, and Kent play Gloucs so one of them gets to 16. Leaving only 1 slot left.
Reckon one win sufficient for Kent to get through. But they seem to have peaked too soon, and arguably were a tad fortunate in a few games. Losing Milne to injury a big loss for all that he hadn't been firing on full cylinders. Be interesting to see how Du Plessis goes, and if Billings can find some form.
Presuming that sides level on points are decided on NRR? Would count against both Surrey and Kent at this stage barring any landslide wins.0 -
Think the worst case scenario for Kent is...
Hampshire bt Middlesex
Essex bt Surrey
Hampshire bt Glamorgan
Middlesex bt Somerset
Gloucs bt Sussex
Would leave table like this (w/o two Kent games)
Sussex 19
Gloucs 16
Middlesex 15
Hampshire 15
Kent 14
Somerset 13
Essex 13
Surrey 12
Glamorgan 5
One win against either Gloucs or Essex then pushes us to 16 and through.
Actually, playing around with it, I think the only way Surrey can get through (barring any ties/NRs) is on NRR if Kent (or Gloucs) lose both their games. Someone might be able to find one though?!

Sussex look very strong. Assume they'd get Archer available too after the Tests finish.0 -

Clearly it will be our batting that wins games and not our bowling - unless we can recruit a strike bowler in time0 -
Would assumed Crawley plays over Robinson? Though that does push Blake down to 7!0

Yeah, but if Gloucs *do* lose their last two (quite possible/probable), then Surrey have a good chance imo-as NRR will adjust accordingly, would need Middx to beat Somerset and then Surrey are in (and ready to slaughter anyone in front of them).we'll probably lose to Essex now !!

Possible Kent get thumped twice and Finch fires for Surrey that the difference gets covered0 -
