    Forgot the bloody game was on!

    Still, great to come on here and see we'd won 👏 👏 👏

    Well done to Billy Root, and the whole team.

    Oh 'me" of little faith!

    I think the draw in that game probably suits us, keeps both in range. Wish it was 3 going up as we would be looking at a decent cushion.

    We've got notts next, so a real chance to go top of the league or very close. Sussex are only 1 wicket down at tea, need 169 in final session to beat Derbyshire. Would be great for us if they could pull that result off , would put a real gap between us.

    Both Cooke and Van Der Gugten should be available for the Notts game in a couple of weeks,

    This game has reminded me that the Essex crowd are the worst bunch of ***** in professional sport. Has anyone else had the unfortunate experience of them in person?

    Glad I decided against going to Chelmsford.

    I don’t know what the biggest margin of defeat in domestic T20 is but this will be right up there. Hopeless.

    An enjoyable game and a good win. The fielding was terrific. Kent’s fielding was dire.
    Two home defeats v Hants and Somerset where we should have chased down to win cost us qualification.

    Another disapointing t20 campaign. Thought the bowling unit was great this tournament. Batting really let us down. So many out of form batters, yet the most damage was done by our best and most in form player. Northeasts innings over the first 9/10 games were utterly criminal, him and Maynard need to take a long hard look at themselves for that gameplan .


    T20 campaign to forget, but still very much in contention in the championship and defending champs in the 50 over comp.

    Re: GLAMMY

    I think where we finished is about right for the ability within the squad - it was an improvement on the last couple of seasons I believe.

    My main complaint is about the poor wickets we played on in Cardiff in our early T20 matches, batting was our weaker discipline and we played on pitches which were never going to lead to a confident batting side.

    I think Northeast prevented this from being a worse campaign. Too many batsmen didn’t produce the goods. So he had to stick around. His strike rate wasn’t great but when you are playing with two key batsmen in Lloyd and Carlson in really poor form it’s a big problem. Cooke and Labuschagne were average. It didn’t leave a lot left.

    Am just watching the test match and, with each passing minute, Sam Billings is confirming my initial impression that I’ve never seen a wicketkeeper in senior cricket make the job look as hard as he does.

    It's a tough one, but I'd argue that half the reason carlson had to go ballistic from ball 1 was because northeast had devastated our run rate by the time he got in. His innings were so poor that everyone else had real run rate pressure to deal with. I'd have much rathered lose a couple of games more heavily by attacking, but actually have a chance of winning others. Lloyds form was worrying, he's always going to be patchy, but I'd have expected him to produce over the course of the tournament. I'd quite like to see Lloyd and Carlson sit out of the next championship match. Give them a game off and hope the 50 over stuff sees them return to form.

    Van Der Gugten is playing for the second team today, so, hopefully, he’ll be back for the Notts four day game.

    I may have to bite the bullet and follow the hundred this year. Michael Hogan has signed for the Southern Brave. Fingers crossed he takes a ton of wickets and they offer him a nice fat contract for next year aswell !!!
