On the VR cricket game called iB Cricket you have the ability to edit the names of your players. Over the years I have kept my players names to some of my all time favourite England player. But, for the time being, I have now decided to change them to my all time favourite Kent players. As I explain on my YouTube video, on the VR Cricket Guy YouTube channel, this might not be the greatest all time Kent eleven, but it is my favourite.

Here is VR Cricket Guy’s favourite Kent Cricket Club team.

Brian Luckhurst Brian Luckhurst was a Kent legend through and through, serving the club from 1958 to 1976 as a reliable opening batsman (with a brief emergency comeback in 1985). A key figure in Kent’s golden one-day era, he helped secure Gillette Cup triumphs in 1967 and 1974, amassing over 22,000 first-class runs for the county at a solid average. His dedication extended beyond playing—he later coached and captained the seconds, even becoming club president. A true one-club man and heartbeat of Kent cricket.

David Fulton David Fulton embodied Kent loyalty, playing his entire 15-season professional career with the club from 1992 to 2006. A classy top-order batsman and leader, he captained Kent from 2003 to 2005 (sharing duties earlier), guiding the side through competitive years. Fulton was a consistent run-scorer in both first-class and List A formats, earning his benefit season in 2006 as a mark of the affection he earned from fans and teammates alike.

Rob Key Rob Key is synonymous with modern Kent cricket, spending his whole career (1998–2016) at the Spitfire Ground and becoming one of the county’s most beloved figures. A prolific right-handed opener with over 19,000 first-class runs for Kent (including 54 centuries), he captained the side in two spells totaling nine years, leading them to notable successes. His leadership, grit, and trademark strokeplay made him a fan favorite and a cornerstone of the club.

Carl Hooper West Indies all-rounder Carl Hooper is often hailed as Kent’s greatest overseas player ever during his six-season stint from 1992 to 1998. Elegant with the bat and crafty off-spin in hand, he topped the batting averages in 1994 and smashed memorable tons, including a highest of 236*. Hooper’s flair lit up Canterbury—he even claimed the fastest century record vibes and cleared the famous Lime Tree with a six—leaving an indelible mark on Kent’s history.

Aravinda de Silva Sri Lankan maestro Aravinda de Silva joined Kent for the 1995 season on short notice and delivered one of the most prolific overseas campaigns in county history. He piled up 1,661 Championship runs at over 59, with six centuries (including the season’s highest score of 255), turning his form around dramatically. His dazzling strokeplay, including a memorable 112 off 95 balls in a cup final, made 1995 a magical year for Kent supporters lucky enough to witness it.

Mark Ealham Mark Ealham, son of Kent stalwart Alan, was a dynamic all-rounder who shone for the county before moving to Nottinghamshire. Known for his aggressive medium-pace bowling and handy lower-order hitting, he contributed significantly in one-day cricket (famously holding the record for the fastest Sunday League century at one point). Ealham’s competitive edge and versatility made him a valuable part of Kent’s attack during his time there.

Steve Marsh Wicketkeeper-batsman Steve Marsh gave outstanding service to Kent across nearly two decades (1982–1999), captaining the side in 1997 and 1998. A tough, reliable gloveman behind the stumps, he was a key figure in the club’s dressing room and on the field, earning his cap in 1986 and a benefit in 1995. His leadership and consistency helped bridge eras at Canterbury.

Matthew Fleming All-rounder Matthew Fleming brought flair and fight to Kent from 1988 to 2002, captaining the county for four years (1999–2002). A useful seam bowler and aggressive middle-order batsman, he racked up over 9,000 first-class runs and nearly 300 wickets for the club. His energetic style and army background added character—he was a natural leader who inspired teammates in limited-overs successes.

Dean Headley Dean Headley, grandson of legendary West Indies batsman George Headley, was a talented fast bowler who played for Kent after starting at Middlesex. Between his spells, he took wickets with skill and control, contributing solidly in both red-ball and one-day formats (including 83 first-class matches for the county). His ability to swing the ball made him a respected part of Kent’s bowling attack.

Duncan Spencer Australian-born (but English-qualified) fast bowler Duncan Spencer burst onto the scene at Kent in 1993–1994 with raw pace that turned heads—Viv Richards himself praised his speed. Though injuries curtailed his career, his explosive spells (including memorable short-pitched barrages) and ability to trouble top batsmen made him an exciting, if brief, talent during his time with the club.

Martin McCague Fast bowler Martin McCague, who grew up in Australia, became a Kent mainstay from 1991 to 2001, earning three England Test caps along the way. His aggressive pace and relentless accuracy shone brightest in 1996 when he was named Kent Player of the Year after a devastating spell (5-3 against Hampshire). McCague’s commitment and ability to extract bounce made him a feared opponent at Canterbury.

I’m hoping to be able to have the ability to edit the players names the VR Cricket Career game that I am currently developing.
