That’s it from today’s coverage of the T20 Blast 2024 South Group match between Sussex Sharks and Kent Spitfires from the County Ground in Hove

I am Gourav Samal, signing off on behalf of my co-commentators Ayan Chatterjee and scorer/analyst Ashok Dayma. Thank you for joining us. Stay tuned for cricketing actions around the world. Good Night. 
2:23 AM IST, 9:53 PM Local Time: That's it! A comfortable win for Sussex Sharks as they have beaten Kent Spitfires by 31 runs in this South Group fixture. They have outplayed Kent in all facets of the game and deserve the win. Kent were flat today and apart from winning the toss, they did not win anything today.  

Chasing 202 for an improbable win, Kent lost Zak Crawley and Marcus O'Riordan early. Daniel Bell-Drummond made 37 off 34 balls. Skipper Sam Billings made 51 off 35 balls while Joey Evison was unbeaten with 34* off 23 balls. Harry Finch made 18 while 15 extras were conceded by the fielding side as Kent finished with 170/7 in 20 overs. 

Danny Lamb was the pick of the bowlers with figures of 3/37 in 4 overs. Nathan McAndrew bowled well for his 2/24 in 4 overs. A wicket apiece for Ollie Robinson and Tymal Mills as well. They were sloppy on the field but managed to get the job done in the end. 

Earlier in the game, Kent won the toss and elected to bowl first. Sussex came out all guns blazing with Harrison David Ward scoring a magnificent 61 off 28 balls. Daniel Hughes made 26 off 16 balls. James Coles made 21 off 13 balls. Fynn Hudson-Prentice made a quickfire 21 off 18 balls. Danny Lamb made 40 off 23 balls while Nathan McAndrew was unbeaten on 10* off 6 balls while Ollie Robinson made an unbeaten 11* off 9 balls. 6 extras given by the fielding side as Sussex ended with 201/7 in 20 overs. 

Matthew Parkinson was the pick of the bowlers with figures of 3/31 in 4 overs for Kent. Xavier Bartlett gave him good support and picked up a couple of wickets for 27 runs in 4 overs. A wicket apiece for Marcus O'Riordan and Beyers Swanepoel. 

So, Sussex beats Kent by 31 runs in this South Group fixture.
