Andrew Hall and Justin Kemp are to return to Kent for the coming season after successful stints at the club last year. Hall and Kemp are currently in action for South Africa in the VB Series in Australia.

Robert Key, the Kent captain, was looking forward to their return. "We are delighted Andrew and Justin are coming back," he said. "They contributed massively to last year's campaign and we are all looking forward to seeing them again. As well as contributing to the all round performance of the team they are great examples to the younger players.

"Andrew and Justin provided an important balance to our squad last year and both are keen to play an even bigger part this season, particularly in One Day cricket," said Graham Johnson, Kent's chairman. "I know all our members and supporters will be pleased to hear they are returning to the club."
