Essex were very much second best on this occasion to a Kent team that went on to walk away with the SCCU Championship. Although for the only time in the course of the season Essex avoided defaults in an away match, they could not match their hosts' strength in depth, and a score of 8-2 over the bottom 10 boards speaks for itself.
