Promotion back to the First Division of the County Championship was achieved on 18 September following a draw against Leicestershire.

Squad

Kent originally announced that their overseas player for 2009 would be Australian fast bowler Stuart Clark.[1] However Clark received a late call-up to join the Australian tour of South Africa forcing the county side to look at other options.[2] Kent announced Clark's replacement would be South African 19-year old left-arm fast bowler Wayne Parnell.[3] Three other South African players remained at the county as Kolpak players: all-rounders Justin Kemp, Ryan McLaren and vice-captain Martin van Jaarsveld. In addition, former Pakistan international all-rounder Azhar Mahmood was with Kent for a second season, having been granted British citizenship.[4]

Batsman James Hockley, who was released at the end of the 2002 season and had been playing club cricket and teaching since, was re-signed by Kent for a second spell.[5] Left-arm spinner Rob Ferley also returned for a second spell with the county.

With Parnell yet to arrive, McLaren on IPL duty, and several other bowlers suffering with early season injuries, Kent signed 35-year old seamer Steffan Jones on a one-month loan from Somerset at the start of the season.[6]
