Play looking pretty unlikely tonight, judging by the rain radar.

@CricketScotland
The covers have come off and we remain confident of the possibility of play.

.

1:30pm start and 42 overs each., if it doesn't rain again. That is very unlikely, but we're going to give it a whirl

 

[Immenso]

So Bennett played last night according to cricinfo scorecard? Despite injury game before?

Tempted to think that good news but tempered by how in accurate cricinfo can be when nz minor cricket

 

[Dan]

He was listed as playing on the NZ teamsheet posted by Cricket Scotland on twitter.

The 3 day game today will be a write off judging by weather forecast.

Still pissed at the itinerary, now even more so.

 

[Kippax]

Yeah, poor. Kent have rested eight guys, as expected.

Kent (from):

· Adam Ball

· Daniel Bell-Drummond

· Alex Blake

· Sam Billings (w)

· Fabian Cowdrey

· David Griffiths

· Charlie Hartley

· Matt Hunn

· Brendan Nash (c)

· Imran Qayyum

· Adam Riley

· Ivan Thomas

I must say that with Michael Bracewell looking less likely I'm still disappointed that Flynn was overlooked.

Kent to play One Day fixture against New Zealand A

Kent Squad for tomorrow:
Key, Bell-Drummond, Harmison, Nash, Stevens, Blake, Billings, Haggett, Griffiths, Riley, Thomas, Hunn.

Batting lineup is near enough full strength there. Resting their best bowlers though.

 

[Dan]

Ben Harmison at 3 is 'full-strength'.

That's seriously weak full-strength, then.

"Near enough full strength"

Missing Northeast and Cowdrey. Cowdrey's just a kid who hasn't done all that much yet though and Northeast is pretty average; they aren't massive outs.

 

[Kippax]

NZA sent in.

Rutherford, Macewell, Brownlie, Mitchell, de Grandhomme, Watling*†, Astle, Craig, Bracewell, Henry, Bennett

 

[Dan]

Tastle sighting!

 

[Kippax]

Playing in whites with a red Duke, I notice.

 

[GGG]

Another thrashing, anyone know what the wicket was like? Brownie scored big but it looks like everyone else struggled.
