Kent 203 for 3 (Denly 82*) beat Gloucestershire 200 (Gidman 3-28) by seven wicketsScorecard Joe Denlys unbeaten 82 helped Kent to kick off their 165th Canterbury Week fixtures with a comfortable seven-wicket Royal London Cup win over Gloucestershire. Denly hit nine fours and a six to anchor the successful Spitfires run-chase to secure a fourth South Group win with 52 balls to spare and maintain Kents hopes of securing a quarter-final berth.In pursuit of Gloucestershires modest total of 200 all out, Kent were given a sound start by in-form openers Denly and Daniel Bell-Drummond, who both went into the game boasting a 60-plus average in this seasons 50-over competition.On a tricky pitch on which boundaries came at a premium, the pair equalled Kents record List A first-wicket stand against Gloucestershire - drawing level with the 92 set by Brian Luckhurst and Graham Jonson here in 1972 - when Bell-Drummond fell for 42. Playing back to one from Benny Howell that just held its line against the St Lawrence slope, the ball clipped off stump to end Bell-Drummonds 59-ball stay.Denly, who posted centuries in Kents Royal London games against Glamorgan in June and at the Ageas Bowl against Hampshire recently, maintained his form by marching to a 71-ball 50 with seven fours.Kent skipper Sam Northeast contributed 26 to the chase before he mistimed a back-foot force against one that held up on the surface to clip a return catch to the bowler David Payne and make it 146 for 2.Sam Billings erratic form continued when he too clipped back a miscued drive to the bowler, this time against spinner Graeme van Buuren, bringing in Darren Stevens, batting in black trainers. Where others had struggled for their timing, Stevens was soon blazing it to all parts. He moved past 7000 List A career runs in the process and went on to win the game with a pulled six to finish unbeaten on 28 from 21 balls.Having won the toss and elected to field, Kent made their opening breakthrough with the 12th ball of the day and the sixth delivery down the Nackington Road slope from Matt Coles. A quick inswinging yorker, the ball beat Phil Mustards clip to leg and rearranged the stumps to make it 7 for 1. Coles struck again in his third over, beating Ian Cockbains back-foot defensive push to send the right-hander packing lbw for 6.The dismissal brought together Gloucestershire captain Michael Klinger and Kiwi batsman Hamish Marshall. The pair added 42 in 12.1 overs until Klinger, on 36 and in aiming to steer one from Darren Stevens down to third man, only succeeded in toe-ending the ball onto the base of off stump.Stevens completed his 10-over stint with figures of 1 for 28 as the visitors limped to 96 for 3 at the midpoint of their innings. Stevens was duly replaced by Charlie Hartley, making his first Kent appearance since late 2014.Fresh from back-to-back five-wicket hauls for Kent 2nds, Hartley struck in his second over, trapping Marshall lbw for 43 with a full offcutter as the batsman aimed to clip leg-side. Hartley struck again in near identical fashion on his next over, snaring Van Buuren lbw as the fifth successive wicket of the innings fell from the same end.That run was broken in the next over when Jack Taylor chipped a slower ball straight back to Will Gidman, the on-loan Nottinghamshire seamer making his home debut for Kent against his former county, who took a comfortable return catch. Gidman struck again by clipping the top of Benny Howells leg stump with an in-ducker then another slower delivery, a low full-toss, accounted for Craig Miles who clipped it straight to midwicket.Tom Smith and David Payne added 36 for ninth wicket before Payne ran himself out when chancing a second run to Bell-Drummond at deep cover. As Gloucestershire finally limped to 200, so Mitch Claydon took his sole wicket by bowling Matt Taylor in the final over, leaving Tom Smith unbeaten on 29.

Didier Drogba gave away the penalty that put Senegal one goal away from a major upset, but the veteran striker will get another chance -- probably his last -- at the World Cup after Salomon Kalous injury-time strike sealed the Ivorians place in Brazil next year. Meagan Martin got the monkey off her back.At the Indianapolis finals in Mondays American Ninja Warrior episode, the 26-year-old climber from Boulder, Colorado, punched her own ticket to Las Vegas (i.e., qualified without needing a wild-card invitation), joining Kacy Catanzaro and Jessie Graff as the only women to achieve that feat.Martin finished in eighth place after making it to the ninth obstacle, the Circuit Board, before her grip gave out and she hit the water. She knew shed made a mistake early in her run and needed to fix it, but she lost her balance in the process.It was a little disappointing, but Im still very pleased with my run! Martin said via text.Its hard not to be pleased. The former Vanderbilt pole vaulter has performed well in city qualifying rounds, hitting the buzzer in each of the past three seasons -- the only woman to do that. When it came to finals, however, shes come up short.It was really important to me to break that cycle, Martin said. I really made a point to stay focused on each obstacle as I got to it and not get ahead of myself.Martin, a member of the ninja training and rock climbing group known as the Wolfpack Ninjas, is no stranger to Vegas. After earning wild-card invitations to the finals the past two seasons, she became the first woman to complete the Jumping Spider in 2014 before stalling out at the Warped Wall. She equaled that performance again in 2015. Her success has earned her the respect of many, including ANWs biggest fans: kids.It means so much to me to be a role model, Martin said. Im the oldest of three girls, so I think Ive always made decisions with setting a good example in mind. Now with American Ninja Warrior, I am on a much bigger stage, so its great to have the opportunity to show girls that they can be and do anything they put their mind to.Indianapolis city finals specs: Finishers: 4Female finishers: 0Women moving on: 1New or modified obstacles on second half of course:: 1 out of 4The course: Were into city finals episodes, where the first six obstacles remain the same as in each of the city qualifiers (except for a couple of tweaks).dddddddddddd In city finals, the course builders added four obstacles on the second portion of the course (which well review below), bringing the total number of obstacles to 10.The first obstacle on the second part of each city finals course so far (i.e., the seventh obstacle overall) is the Salmon Ladder. Ninjas hang from a bar and must propel themselves upward to jump the bar up a series of rungs.The eighth obstacle in Indianapolis was the Hourglass Drop, which made its ANW premiere in Venice in 2015. Its a certified ninja killer. Ninjas hang from a bar, and then drop onto a trampoline to propel themselves to a hanging board. They must hop their hands along the unstable board, doing their best to keep it level, lest it tip and dump them into the water, before dismounting onto the platform.The Circuit Board is the all-new ninth obstacle on this course. In both a cerebral and physical test, competitors grip two movable pieces that hang from cutouts in a board. The pieces can be taken in and out of the openings, and ninjas must slide them along the boards cutouts to maneuver to the next platform.The Invisible Ladder returns as the 10th obstacle. So far, thats been the case on each city finals course. Ninjas grab rings suspended from a hole in a platform and pull. When their movement stops, the ring catches their weight so that it looks like they are pulling themselves up a ladder, through the hole at the top of the finishing platform.Looking forward: Next weeks episode features the Oklahoma City finals, which was a surprising region that saw the early exits of ninja greats Catanzaro and Lance Pekus. It should be an interesting ride! ' ' '
