England's T20 Blast will take a wee break as they now switch up to deliver their 'The Hundred' doosra, although we do have some of our kiwi cricketers sliding into County Championship antics during this phase.

Credit to the Blackcaps legends who don't need T20 cricket gigs. Double down on that and chur to the true avant-garde Test cricketers who are chillin' in isolation - as true artists tend to do

Any discussion around Aotearoa's greatest cricketers ever will obviously focus on what those lads have done for the Aotearoa Blackcaps, understandably so.

As the leaves dip off their trees and the chilly breeze blows in days of rain, it doesn't look like this winter will involve much Kiwi County Tour cricket.

England is currently hosting the Cricket World Cup, meaning County Championship cricket has slid into the background and we are left with Lord Jeetz and the Dutch Freak on the KCT bus.

Kiwi cricket fans will be fizzing with delight after Ross Taylor put up his second notable for Middlesex on the Kiwi County Tour, while Jeetan Patel and Logan van Beek battle away.

Other than the impressive return of Logan van Beek to Derbyshire's 1st 11, not too many shenanigans on the Kiwi County Tour bus this week.

King Rossco has made a lovely start to his Royal London One-Day Cup for Middlesex and then we have Hamish Rutherford banging out centuries as well.

The start of the Kiwi County Tour One-Day Cup excursion saw some solid performances from the whanau, with the highlight being Hamish Rutherford's century for Worcestershire.

Initially we had just three lads on the Kiwi County Tour for 2019, however it looks as though we have a fourth as Hamish Rutherford appeared for Worcestershire to join Logan van Beek, Matt Quinn and Lord Jeetz.

Our first round of Kiwi County Tour is a wrap and in a quiet moment to myself as I waited for Logan van Beek to finish his post-match antics, was how lovely it was to start this year's KCT with two young lads doing their thing in England.

With a World Cup going down during the 2019 Kiwi County Tour, our touring party is a wee bit smaller this year without losing any of the funk that makes the KCT what it is.

The Kiwi County Tour is all done for 2018, with Jeetan Patel getting the back seat of the KCT bus via a win over Matt Henry to claim the Division Two title.

We're all about enjoying the present moment on the Kiwi County Tour bus, although after the latest round of cricketing funk in England, Warwickshire vs Kent in the next round will put Jeetan Patel up against Matt Henry for the Division Two championship.

Quiet times on the Kiwi County Tour bus as Matt Henry and Jeetan Patel continue their dominance, leading the way for Jeet Raval and now Matt Quinn who has made a glorious return.

Having booted Kane Williamson off the Kiwi County Tour bus, the gang welcomed Jeet Raval as a lovely replacement not only for us on the bus, also for Yorkshire. Raval got his first crack at County cricket and we also had Matt Henry and Jeetan Patel swap their wicket-taking fortunes. 

Matt Henry was a low key batting maestro on the Kiwi County Tour last year and after dominating with the ball for Kent this season, Henry finally flexed with the willow.

Rachel Priest and Sophie Devine were both in action on finals day of the Women's T20 Super League, which unfortunately followed the general vibe of our Kiwi County Tour Super League excursion.
