A win against Kent is always a good way to begin a season, but this proved to be a deceptively encouraging start to Stuart Bates' captaincy of the team. In what was to prove a recurring pattern for a number of seasons, Kent failed to arrive at Wanstead House with a full contingent of players and thereby gave themselves a handicap that they were unable to surmount over the board.
