Bit of an odd one.

Yep. I didn't think he even played that fornat anymore! Obviously he wasn't going to for Kent.


I guess if he still has the legs, he was a good T20 player wasnt he? Did he purposefully give up on the T20 stuff to preserve his county career, or did Kent give up on him?

Must be near 45 now :lmao WIll he ever retire.

not while he's still taking 5fers and scoring half centuries, which he has done in his last couple of matches

Kent looking good in their first game.............. decent total and 4 earlyish wickets with the rate climbing all the time

Top of the league

Stevens leaving Kent at end of season.

Seems he hopes to find a new club....at 43

If it had been a few years ago he'd have been just about the right age for Surrey.

Might well do. Seem to be a lot of loan deals that soon become permanent ones.

perhaps Durham might be interested in giving him a 2 year deal with a coaching job at the end of it?

Leaning has signed for Kent.

Very impressed by that. Think he's a big talent.
