Can you believe it? Another miserable day for cricket. We arrived at the ground (Beckenham) and sat in the car for at least 3 hours before stepping outside and finally taking our seats.
Play didn’t start until 14:30, should have started at 11:00. I said to Claire that if it rained again, we would go home.
Not surprisingly Hampshire won the toss and put Kent in, but openers Tawanda Muyeye and Ollie Robinson gave a good start against attack including former international bowler Kyle Abbott (bowled with some good pace), until Tawanda Muyeye was bowled by John Turner for 24.
Looking to our right, we could see a huge dark cloud moving in, so we moved to the car and just as we reached it, the rain poured down, so as agreed we left. With Kent 70 for 4 in 14.2 overs.
Amazingly the rain stopped and they went back out, but Kent were convincingly beaten by 6 wickets in reduced 24 over match.
This was after the Saturday match for Speldhurst II was cancelled, this summer is miserable. ?
