This morning I went to Kent second ground at Beckenham, as it’s not often you can see a current England player for free entrance.
Jofra Archer was playing for the 1st time in England this season as prep for the World T20 Finals next month in the West Indies and USA.
Some pictures and videos from the morning play.

What a performance!! What a night!! Come on Leeds.
Leeds United will play Southampton or West Bromwich Albion in the Championship play-off final after a thumping win over an outclassed Norwich.
Backed by a vociferous home support, Leeds set about their opponent’s right from the get-go
After a drab stalemate in the first leg on Sunday, the home side, who finished three places and 17 points above the Canaries, took a deserved early lead when Ilia Gruev’s long-range free-kick beat Angus Gunn at his near post.
Joel Piroe made it 2-0 when he headed in Willy Gnonto’s deep cross to the far post, with keeper Gunn caught in no man’s land, to leave the away side with a mountain to climb.
They should have pulled one back immediately but Josh Sargent was thwarted by keeper Illan Meslier one-on-one in what proved to be the only chance of note Norwich had all night.
It was 3-0 before the break when Georginio Rutter crashed a shot in off the underside of the bar after a breakaway attack.
Crysencio Summerville tapped home a fourth for the dominant home side after the interval after Gunn had parried a Gnonto shot out to Junior Firpo, who squared for the Dutchman to roll home.
The Whites will now have nine days to prepare for the play-off final at Wembley on Sunday, 26 May as they look to secure an immediate return to the Premier League.
Now we need to take that performance to the final and break our play-off curse.
Marching On Together.
