CITY HAS BECOME REAL HOME FROM HOME

Jason Gillespie admitted he would miss Canterbury but not as much as the Kent staff. He said: “It’s always the people you’re working with – the support staff and players, that’s what you’ll miss. I love Canterbury as a place. I’m not a big fan of real big cities so this fits in perfectly. I’ve been living within a minute’s walk so I’ll certainly be missing that commute!” “You miss that banter and fun. I’ll miss the lads going out and playing great cricket and singing that victory song. They are almost as excited to sing the team song as they are to win. I wish Kent all the best for the rest of the season and hope to see the boys get some success. “Division 2 is incredibly competitive. You can score as many runs as you like but unless you take 20 wickets, you won’t get maximum points. The top-three sides have been knocking teams over and have depth in their bowling unit.”
