Kent are 220-9 after 37 overs, leaving them 177 to win off 13 overs. Hampshire may have a chance, here.
I think you may be right. Looking forward to going in a couple of weeks time. It'll make a change going to watch one of 'my teams' with an anticipation of them winning rather than watching certain other teams tame any such emotion pretty quickly!!

For Abbott and Barker to suddenly make the squad maybe suggests we've changed our expectations for the tournament after two wins?

I appreciate that we're missing Holland, so if it was just the one of them in the squad then it could just be a temporary thing. But it's both of them. Would seem a little unnecessary to take them both over to the IoW unless they're going to play?

What's happened to Dutchie?

They've probably got a two-for-one deal on the Red Jet, and needed another person to give them the reduced fare.

Barker plays but not Abbott.
 
Donald is batting a bit like Jason Roy at the moment, finding ways to get out. I know it's looking rather far ahead at the moment, but I'd be tempted to leave both Donald and Weatherley out of our next Championship side and try Prest instead.
