CB40 Cricket - 31st July

Just the one game tonight, in the CB40 competition, and heavily rain affected.

CB40

Derbyshire v Kent - Kent win by 9 wickets (D/L)
Kent won the toss and decided to field
Der - 62-5 (14o)
Ken - 68-1

Rain ruined most of the evening leaving a 14 over per side game in Derby. Kent made full use of the difficult conditions and prevent Derbyshire from making a quick start. Two early wickets removed both of the openers for 11 each. Durston took the hosts to 41 before he was caught behind for 11, causing a small collapse that left Derbyshire on 47-5. Clare managed to hit 11 from 3 balls in the closing stages with a 6 and a 4, but Stevens finished with 2 for 3 from 2 overs, which in a 14 over thrash was incredible.
     Kent however wasted no time in getting to 20, insdie the first three overs. Key was caught for 17 from 10 balls, but Billings (28*) batted more carefully to make sure no upset would happen. He and Northeast (22*) took Kent to their required 68, in 10.5 overs.

Star Player: Stevens, for his brilliant bowling performance
