Its weird. A host of aspiring cricketers get cherry-picked. no doubt being advised go to Surrey if you want England selectors to look at you. Local boys lose out and some of these players aren't really there for or have any affinity for Surrey when it matters. Buying superstars doesn't always work

At last a bit of grit from Surrey. Match drawn.

Amla the master. A great effort.

Kent have got a draw as well.

The downside for us is that we will be in Division Three in September.

Credit to Surrey for not just rolling over and coming away with a draw

All the batsmen spent time at the crease especially Hashim Amla batting for nearly six and a half hours for 37 not out

As a Hampshire fan I raise my hat to Amla - what a lesson in how not to get out! Saved the day for Surrey

So no Amla, Pope or Jacks tomorrow. We have got in Tim David for the last 2 games. Never heard of him. A hard hitting Singaporean by all accounts.
Things looking bleak in this comp for Surrey.

Indeed. I’ve lumped on Kent….

Played in the Big Bash & Pakistan Super League this year, so should be match ready

Kyle Jamieson's injury has brought to an end his brief stay with Surrey

Damn!

Let's hope so. Will be annoyed if Jacks does not get a game for England Saturday.

It’s mercenary cricket, no? I heard an interview with Richard Hadlee the other day, where he said he couldn’t have imagined playing for another team during his time at Notts. Jeremy Coney was saying that when NZ were touring England, Hadlee would often join the NZ camp a day before a Test was due to start, once he’d finished his County game with Notts. How times have changed.

How many black cats has Alec Stewart run over lately, crikey can it get any worse? but you have to ask how the hell did we get away with a draw v Hampshire. Oh forgot all down to the old boy Amla, what a player.

Surrey are 16/3 after 6 overs.

Think it's fair to say that our chance of the Quarters are slipping out of sight.

59/5 after 12

Tbh England playing completely killed our 20/20 chances this season.

I suspect that’s the worst T20 team Surrey have ever put out. Can’t see where runs, wickets or economy is going to come from. Still, it was easy money to make…

In other news, just found out Jade Dernbach gone on loan to Derbyshire, for the remaining 2020 games

Yes followed you tonight and backed Kent at 5/6. It was easy money and a bit of consolation. Glad I gave my ticket to someone.
