HEAD COACH ADMITS SIDE AREN'T PLAYING WELL ENOUGH CURRENTLY
KENT head coach Adam Hollioake admitted his side have work to do on the training pitch before they face Lancashire in four weeks' time
Kent are without a win in their past four County Championship Division Two games. Their three-wicket away loss to Gloucestershire this week was preceeded by defeats to Glamorgan and Middlesex, while they drew at home to Gloucestershire in late April.
It leaves Kent second to bottom of Division Two, although they now have a break from the County Championship until they face Lancashire in a match startong on Sunday, June 22.
And Hollioake admits after a bad start, Kent let the game get away from them in their latest fixture against Gloucestershire.
"Firstly disappointing," he said. "We were behind the run of the game from the beginning. We didn’t bowl well in the first hour and we know how important that is.
