List of Kent Twenty20 cricket records

This is a list of Kent Twenty20 cricket records; that is, record team and individual performances in Twenty20 cricket for Kent County Cricket Club.

Listing criteria

In general the top five are listed in each category (except when there is a tie for the last place among the five, when all the tied record holders are noted).

Listing notation

Team notation

• (300-3) indicates that a team scored 300 runs for three wickets and the innings was closed, either due to a successful run chase or if no playing time remained.
• (300) indicates that a team scored 300 runs and was all out.

Batting notation

• (100) indicates that a batsman scored 100 runs and was out.
• (100*) indicates that a batsman scored 100 runs and was not out.

Bowling notation

• (5-100) indicates that a bowler has captured 5 wickets while conceding 100 runs.

Currently playing

• † indicates a currently playing cricketer registered as a Kent player.
• ‡ indicates a currently playing cricketer who plays for a side other than Kent.

Seasons

• Cricket is played during the summer months in most countries. Domestic cricket seasons in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Zimbabwe and the West Indies may therefore span two calendar years, and are by convention said to be played in (e.g.) "2008–09". A cricket season in England is described as a single year. e.g. "2009".

An international Test series may be for a much shorter duration, and Cricinfo treats this issue by stating "any series or matches which began between May and September of any given year will appear in the relevant single year season and any that began between October and April will appear in the relevant cross-year season".[1] 

In the record tables, a two-year span generally indicates that the record was set within a domestic season in one of the above named countries.
