Bowled him!

K 132 - 2 Close = 30 short

Interesting call to enforce the follow on. I thought Vince might have given his bowlers a rest while the batters thrash the ball around for 30 overs or so.

I think you’re on to something there. Kent could grind a draw out of this now unless we strike early tomorrow.

Essentially 9-4. Still a lot of work for us to do, but we might yet force a win.

Importantly we'll have two relatively new batters at the crease for the new ball.

Golden arm strikes again.

Or even better, one very new batter!

With Surrey being frustrated by the rain we really do need to win this.

K 220 - 5 Lunch = +58

K 220 - 5 Lunch = +58

It just isn't a great pitch for taking wickets.

Frustrating that the new ball hasn't taken a wicket yet, need a breakthrough pretty soon.

Yess! i'm claiming that one...

One wicket nearly brings two.

Oh dear, Vince is getting a ticking off.

 

[st_brendy]

At the moment Kent's lead is nowhere near enough. Do they look to kick on a try and smash whatever they can, or do they continue as they are and look to bat time?

A fired up Kyle is damn near unplayable.

Finally

You sensed that coming a mile off. A tail ender has no chance against Kyle when he's fired up.

Kyle really filling in the gap with Big Keith missing.
