Blimey, either Cook is a convert to Bazball or he wants the game over quickly, as there are problems at the farm!Addick Addict said:Cook sending message with 39 off 30 balls to McCullum!3 -
Meanwhile Harry Finch is sending a similar message to the Kent coaches to Muyeye - he has just failed to reach his ton in being caught behind for 96 to go with the 167 that he achieved in the first innings2

80-1 off 16 overs. Far too many 4 balls (17 of them to date) albeit on a good track.0
-
100-1 off 25 overs. Bowling a tighter length and line now.0

Members used to be able to purchase a cooked lunch in the Cornwallis Suite pre covid. Not sure whether or not that still applies.CharltonKerry said:Thanks for all your help re the questions I have asked, been trying to work it out how long it’s been since my last visit as best as I can make it’s around 52 years. Anyway finally made it along with the wife. Weather isn’t great snd it’s certainly cool.
Kent are fielding

Ended up with a nice chicken Baltic pie in the bar of the Les Ames stand, you can’t say I don’t know how to treat the wife.4

159-1 bad light has saved us and the players in particular given that it is windy and we've hit a new low of 7 degrees.0

Don't worry too much about the weather it will be much warmer in August when the county championship gets into full swing.Addick Addict said:159-1 bad light has saved us and the players in particular given that it is windy and we've hit a new low of 7 degrees.

Back on - and off again at 164-1. The fielders were practically begging the Umpires to take them off!0

Is the bowling going to be a problem this season, and the batting too?0

I see (the ex-Kent) Ollie Robinson is getting runs again. Why the hell did Kent let him go? He has always seemed like a decent county cricketer to me.0

If you ever think Kent are pathetic, try being a Worcestershire fan. We had Gloucestershire 45-7 batting first today. A few hours later we are cruising into a lost position. It's absolutely effortless. Oh yeah, and we've allowed one of their lot to score a ton from number 9 and take a hat-trick on the same day. BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT WE DO1

The issue had been "boiling up" for a couple of years. Three keeper/batsman with the captain being one of them and all of them sharing the same ambition to play for England. He was dropped when Billings came back from the IPL and if one looks at the fact that we've had to leave out Denly for this game, it is difficult to see who they omit for Robinson. Even though they probably should. That said, his departure has been very amicable from both sides and it wouldn't surprise too many people if he were back with is in three or four years time providing it suits all parties for that to happen at that time.thai malaysia addick said:I see (the ex-Kent) Ollie Robinson is getting runs again.

At least you're not flooded! With all the rain in March, New Road would surely have been at riskLeuth said:If you ever think Kent are pathetic, try being a Worcestershire fan.

Hopefully manage to get a full game out of this, but not looking likely. Having said that, Essex are very light in the batting department once Browne or Westley go.0

Subject to no more rain, play due to begin at 3.150

They are, indeed, back on but, unfortunately, Gilchrist is bowling like someone who is coming back from injury without enough overs under his belt before doing so. Struggling for line and length, his three overs to date have gone for 29 to give him overall figures of 17-1-95-0. By contrast, Agar has looked threatening if only to the welfare of the Essex batsmen - his four overs have gone for just a single and he's hit Browne on the head too with a bouncer (17-8-40-1).
194-1 and an undefeated stand of 1510 - Sponsored links:

Browne reaches his ton too
280-1 and the partnership is now 2370 -
Well we can't win this game now. The wicket offers nothing to the bowlers at the moment so there should be no excuses for us when we go in to bat. "Should".0

They are off for bad light now and that is probably it for the day. Some respite at least.

Based on what I saw yesterday, I thought Agar bowled very well, was disappointed by Gilchrist but would say his figures flattered him, look like both carried on in the same vein today unfortunately for Gilchrist.1
