Diary of a cricket season. Friday May 22nd.
Kent 208-6. Middlesex 181-8.
Kent win by 27 runs.
It was tight for a while, but Kent started their Blast campaign off with a win at Lord’s on Friday, thanks to a captain’s innings of 84 not out from Sam Billings and some ruthlessness, both with the bat and in the field.
