    As the Surrey fans seem to have given up on their thread and instead hang out with the cool kids here, worth noting that Rikki Clarke will retire at the end of the season. Only 39, so a young whippersnapper compared to Stevo!

    Both absolute legends in my opinion. 
    I don't think Stevo is human and he will still be pissing me off by taking wickets at the Oval in about ten years time. 🤦‍♂️

    Kent's side for the 50 over competition looks better than I feared, especially as many of the absent players have been poor this season anyway (Denly, DBD, Blake) or missing much of the time anyway (Billings, Crawley). Leaning captains


    Pleased to say it's a much stronger squad than I feared. 

    Looking forward to Thursday already ! 

    BTW Have logged onto the Kent website & found the matchday info is now in place with details about transport, parking etc.

    Our tickets state we should enter via Gate A but I can't find a map/plan of the Ground anywhere....

    Does anyone know if this entry point is in Worsley Bridge Road, please ?

    Just had a look at some of the other teams squads for this competition. I’m telling you, we look in a strong position.

    Matt Walker is the assistant head coach for the Invincibles, so who will be leading Kent in the Royal London?

    I think it will be a combination of the bowling and batting coaches, Simon Cook and Mike Yardy, with the likes of Min Patel being involved at some point

    Doesn’t it make you proud. I genuinely wish the lads well but it has become a hollow largely irrelevant competition for me. I find it immensely sad just 3 of the names listed have their roots in Kent cricket.

    Just two in today's starting XI with the likes of Billings, Denly, Blake, DBD, Crawley and Cox all at that other comp

    We win the toss, put Durham in. No Leaning. Ollie Robinson captains the side.

    Leaning self isolating and will miss the first 2 matches

    Congratulations to Ollie Robinson on skippering the side at just 22. Hindsight and all that but I wouldn't mind betting, if he had the chance again, he'd choose to bat rather than bowl.

    Cameron Bancroft is a pretty decent player to have at number 4 for this competition, I assume none of the 100 teams wanted him

    Sean Dickson has come in for the last 4 overs to join Bancroft

    Dickson run out for 6. Just want you want when you've had a couple of hours of pad rash!

    I’m confident in saying I’ll get Charlton life members faces tattooed on my arm as long as Kuhn is in the team
