Gloucestershire`s thrilling comeback, led by Cameron Green, clinched a stunning victory over Kent in the County Championship.

Gloucestershire staged a remarkable comeback to secure a thrilling three-wicket victory over Kent at the Seat Unique Stadium in Bristol. Chasing a modest target of 162 runs, Gloucestershire faced early turmoil, stumbling to 57-4. However, Cameron Green emerged as the hero of the day, crafting a match-winning innings of 67 not out from just 90 balls, guiding his team to victory with 13.5 overs to spare.

Kent`s Nathan Gilchrist was a standout performer with the ball, claiming 4 wickets for 43 runs, but it was not enough to halt Gloucestershire`s momentum. Earlier in the match, Ben Charlesworth`s explosive bowling spell, where he took three wickets in a mere 14-ball burst, played a crucial role in dismissing Kent for 253 in their second innings, setting the stage for a dramatic finish.

In other matches, Derbyshire managed to secure a tense draw against Lancashire, who declared at 184 for seven, setting a daunting target of 328 runs. Harry Came`s resilient 63 runs for Derbyshire showcased their fighting spirit as they navigated the challenging chase. With England gearing up for a Test series against India, the performances in this match will certainly be under scrutiny as players vie for selection.
