Kent have revealed they will begin their Friends Life T20 campaign on Tuesday against Sussex Sharks at Tunbridge Wells with just one overseas player.

The county have been on the lookout for an addition to West Indies batsman Brendan Nash for the 20-over competition, but have been priced out of the market by international stars more akin to Indian Premier League wages.

With a sizeable squad to pick from this season, which has seen the likes of Mike Powell and Charlie Shreck yet to feature in one-day cricket, it’s felt there are enough resources to choose from.

Kent chief executive Jamie Clifford (pictured) said: “We have looked everywhere and trawled through the options and, like our recruitment in the winter, we were very thorough, but concluded we couldn’t see anything that caught the eye.

“There are some silly prices out there, especially for just five home games. It means they would have to bring a hell of a lot of bums on a hell of a lot of seats to justify that price.

“There is a lot of experience in that dressing room, with several players having won it, others making it to finals day, so I would expect them to have another good run this year and use the resources we have.”
