Veteran Darren Stevens bagged five wickets to help clinch his side’s three-day innings and 25-run win over Delray Rawlins and Sussex after a record-breaking display of Kent batting that featured double hundreds by Jordan Cox and Jack Leaming.
In near ideal batting conditions at The Spitfire Ground, St Lawrence, Stevens, revealed all his bowling wiles to bag five for 50 as the visitors succumbed in their second innings for 173 inside 46.1 overs to lose with six overs and a day to spare on another glorious Canterbury day.
Needing almost 200 to make Kent bat again, the visitors lost four wickets in 22.1 overs through to tea after Kent had declared their mammoth first innings on 530 for one.
Rawlins finished with figures of 18-0-73-0.
In the Sussex second inning, Rawlins was the third top scorer with 19, his 19 came off 19 balls, in 19 minutes. Rawlins hit 2 fours and 1 six in his inning.
