The Kent Thread

So Kent,
Latest news is that Amjad Khans out for the season due to knee trouble.

drumkingSP · 3rd March 2007, 10:12

And Yasser Arafat has joined the Pakistan squad for the WC.

**STT** · 3rd March 2007, 10:37

Who are the overseas players this year, drum?

Boycs elderly female relatives · 3rd March 2007, 12:51

I think it is Arafat & Hall.

GSLA · 3rd March 2007, 12:56

Denly appears to have done pretty well in Sydney grade cricket this winter.

Arafat and Hall, but with the Kolpak rule, I wouldn't be surprised if more came round

10 1st grade matches - 542 runs at 45.17 for UTS Balmain.

Sounds promising.

That's a fairly decent effort in the Aussie season.

Overseas are Arafat (who'll now be here a month early) and Hall. Kolpaks are MVJ still and Ryan McLaren who's another South African - never heard of him before we signed him though.

A bit of an exodus in the seasoned reserves with Ferley, O'Brien, Stiff and Cusden all moving counties, batting looks as solid as ever, we could be a quality bowler short of that elusive title unfortunately.

Anyone know how Sam Northeast has got on in the winter?

McClaren was brilliant in the supersport

but no hes just a traitor grrr!!!!

chris · 23rd March 2007, 15:22

Well hope he's brilliant in CC as well. Below is the trusty cricinfo profile and he looks fairly handy, batting and bowling averages the right side of 30 and 25 respectively. With our 6, 7, 8 and 9 being GoJo, Hall, McLaren and Arafat I fancy some big totals on the board. Still slightly worried about a lack of cutting edge with the ball against high quality batsmen though.

Really excited now, just a matter of 4 days to go before the season gets underway.

Does he intend to play for England?

I see Neil Dexter is back in, was he injured? Ton for him.

When does he qualify?

Baron von Death · 26th April 2007, 23:22

The attack didn't look too hot last year even with Khan. It's ridiculously lightweight this time around unless Saggers has a revival or it's so dry that Patel takes a heap.

essexbopara · 27th April 2007, 16:05

when does hall arrive

Sometime next week I;d imagine-Nial Obrian doesnt officially play for Northans until Monday so he is playing for Ireland against us tomorrow. I'd imagine the SA WC squad would probably touch down in SA sometime this weekend and then after a de brief, they'd be free to go and hunt for glory.

Creamy Goodness · 3rd May 2007, 12:36

I am liking Yasir Arafat!

**stevieh** · 3rd May 2007, 14:42

Good performance by Kent with the ball this morning! Are they enforcing the follow-on?

Maty · 3rd May 2007, 14:46

Ryan McLaren showcasing his talent finally.

drumkingSP · 10th May 2007, 18:06

Good to see the team performing.

Maty · 10th May 2007, 18:10

gosh your batting line up has some depth....

Arafat, McLaren and Tredwell at 8,9 and 10. Maybe Jones should bat at ten??
