Another pathetic effort from Lancashire's top order - 38-5, Kent all out for 261. That's what you get when you appoint Blenkenstein as coach, 2 wins out of 28 matches for Gloucestershire, zilch in 2023.
As is often the case following on, a much better effort, 95-1. Jennings 34, Bohannon 29, trail by 74, 12 overs left.All out for a disgraceful 92, and they were 51-8. Following on, now 28-0, trailing by 141.

Director of Cricket Performance Mark Chilton added: "We are delighted to secure Dale as our new men's head coach. He joins us with a wealth of experience and knowledge, and I believe Dale is the right person to move us forward and into our next chapter
"He is a fantastic fit for what we're trying to achieve, has demonstrable leadership ability, a strong record of developing and nurturing young, talented players to fulfil their potential and has also been part of winning teams, particularly at Durham and Hampshire.
"I am looking forward to working with Dale and welcoming him to Emirates Old Trafford in the new year, as we continue to build on the foundations that have been laid in recent years with an exciting group of players.
Chilton conveniently omits Blekenstein's dismal record at his last club, Gloucestershire.
