Opponents: Surrey - Home match

Match type: To be confirmed
Venue: Street End CC

The U13 girls got off to a losing start in the LV county championship against Surrey.

Bowling first, Kent’s bowlers were wayward, bowling too many wides but at the end, were happy to have restricted Surrey to 127 for 9 from 30 overs.

Kent were soon on the back foot as the Surrey opening bowlers reduced them to 16 for 5 inside the first 6 overs. Consolidation was required and this came with the 9th wicket partnership between Phillipa Hemphrey and Grace Franklin who put on 50 before Grace was bowled of the last ball of the innings.

Kent finished on 115 for 9, losing by 12 runs.

Having beaten Middlesex the week before Kent Under 13 girls set off in confident mood to take on Essex at Garon Park Southend.

With Essex batting first Kent set about their work with the ball and with all making a contribution to the cause Essex were bowled out for 103 inside 27 overs.

Kent made a cautious start but with the openers, Hollie Summers 45 n.o. and Hannah Mount 27 putting on an opening stand of 85 the game had all but been won when Phillipa Hemphrey joined Hollie at the crease to see Kent home in the 22nd over with nine wickets in hand.

Venue: Brookland CC

Having had an emphatic win in Essex two weeks prior the girls were made to work really hard second time around.

Essex won the toss and put Kent into bat, whose openers found the going a lot tougher than the last time the two teams met. With a third of the innings gone Kent found themselves at 21 for 2.

Nia Lewis then joined skipper Tash Farrant at the crease and started to move the score along with Farrant eventually being bowled for 63 and Lewis falling to the same bowler for 26 (Lucy Lawless 6-10-17-3). Kent finished on 150 for 5.

The Essex reply started brightly with opener Grace Melhuish and number 3 Laura Woodhatch batting well. Essex were always up with the required rate but with the departure of both Kent started to claw back the situation, only for Chloe Haywood to come in and hit some lusty blows to put Essex back in the driver’s seat.

As the scores got closer Haywood became one of three run outs and the last over started with Essex requiring 2 to win. Hollie Summers stepped up and by the time she was ready to bowl the last ball of the match Essex still needed a single to win. However, it was a dot ball and the scores were tied with Kent scraping the win by virtue of losing fewer wickets.

Frustration for Kent Under 13 girls as the weather caused the match with Middlesex to be abandoned.

A long journey to Regents Park in London and with Kent winning the toss, Middlesex were invited to bat. With bad weather looming Kent bowled them out for 49 inside 23 overs.

Unfortunately the bad weather arrived earlier than expected, Kent were unable to get the opportunity to chase and the match was abandoned.
