    The final team from our limp T20 campaign

    Sam Northeast is skippering Glamorgan and I believe that he is the only player to captain three Blast sides. Yesterday he hit 97 not out yesterday out of his team's total of 185. Glamorgan still lost by 69 runs!

    Glamorgan won the toss and elected to bat. At the half way stage they are 77-1 and Northeast is ominously on 31* with his partner at the other end, the T20 specialist Ingram, on 20*

    Leicestershire were disqualified from qualifying after having two points deducted for disciplinary issues in their game against Northants. Serves them right as they have been warned about this during the course of the last year or so.

    Ouch! 93 conceded off the final 6 overs! Denly and Leaning only bowled 2 overs between them and yet only conceded 9 runs in total.

    Indeed, AA.

    Watching the stream from The Oval on Friday, I questioned why Matt M had been asked to bowl another over which proved hugely expensive, when Denly had been rationed to one. 

    And, again, tonight, the same issue ! But as much as any other factor, the dropped catches sealed our fate tonight and the early wickets we lost.

    Hugely disappointing & the atmosphere at the Spitfire Ground was very low key, which was to be expected. 

    I'm pinning my hopes on the 50 over comp ...that's probably the kiss of death !

    Walks in his post match interview looked a broken man. He is a genuinely good bloke but, for various reasons, we have just not been very good this year. The start of the season was looking bright because of the players available, so much so that we had five contracted seamers in the 2s and sent Stewart out on loan but, very shortly afterwards, they dropped one by one. Bird leaving within a matter of weeks, Milnes losing his mojo and no one fit and available to replace him, Stevens ineffective in the conditions and then getting injured himself, Linde disappointing with the ball, losing Crawley and now Billings to international duty etc etc really hasn't helped. 

    There will, undoubtedly, be changes and he might be one of those might well be that Walks leaving as a result. I don't think anyone can criticise him for his commitment though. Henry arriving for the CC, getting some of the players back from injury, a decent showing in the Royal London despite missing seven or so players for the Mickey Mouse comp (but not as many as last year) could turn things around to a degree. Could.

    You probably know already, but Jas Singh hurt his knee on Saturday bowling his first ball for Bexley, and although he completed his over, he could well be injured for a while? He said he'd be seeing the Kent physio on Sunday... Another of our quicker bowler options now gone?

    Jas saw the physio, has been told to just ice the knee and all appears to be good. I suspect that contracted County players are told that they can play for their clubs as long as they respect any niggle so any injury doesn't become any more serious. The physio would have been on site for a County game too so the official prognosis is always going to be sooner than when at a club.

    Think if u are just playing at a club it’s a DIY diagnosis from the good old NHS . Can’t think of any of them with the money for a physio.

    The Kent Premier League is a bit like Animal Farm. All clubs are equal but some seem to have a lot more money than others.  I can think of one club in particular who, if the players demanded that a physio would help them to win the KPL, would, in a nanosecond, find a means of funding one!

    A bit of good news for us. Both Quinn and Gilchrist are playing in the current 2s game and both have taken wickets with Hants currently 84-5

    Pinning my hopes on success in the 50 over matches & planning to go to Worcester on 2nd August for a day out.

    I've checked the BBC site re The Hundred ( spit) & it looks like we'll lose 7 players to the various squads.

    These are Crawley, DBD, Klaassen, Bilbo, Milnes, Cox, Leaning. 

    However, I thought it was mentioned on last Friday's stream from The Oval that Blakey was impressing the home crowd with his batting as he would be playing there during August...And also, Qais is not listed. 

    Perhaps someone ( AA ?) could confirm these names. 

    So, we could be left with 13 first teamers for the August matches if all are fit, I believe.

    Thoughts, please .

    Relax, @Fanny Fanackapan.

    I've oiled my 'Herbert Sutcliffe' bat and will be ready for the call.
