Of the Kent top batsmen van Jaarsveld has probably shone the least brightly in T20 so far this year, having said that as you know SS, I'm a massive fan of Jarra and think he's our best batsman (if he gets in) so he certainly has the quality to be the star. I'm hoping Denly gets off to a flyer. Last year (when Kent demolished Sussex in the Semi) Denly got out to a bit of a silly shot just as he was about to show everyone what he can do (on 31 iirc), and it was Rob Key's 60 odd that did the damage, Jarra getting bowled for 2 (just to prove my point about him being a poor starter). I reckon Kent have a much better team than last year. Key, Denly and Jarra up the order. Stevens, Arafat, Mahmood, McLaren and Kemp in the middle, any one of those is cabable of getting a big score. Tredders can bat too. Then in Mahmood and Arafat I reckon we've got 2 of the best death bowlers on the championship scene. The Essex match is gonna be the tough one, Essex have the ability to take it away from us with Bopara and Napier especially. Can't plan for the final but I'd back the winner of SF1 to be there at the end holding the trophy.
