Maher's century proves meaningless
Mark Pennell of the Kent Messenger Group - 16 June 2001

Jimmy Maher's maiden century for Glamorgan counted for nought as their CricInfo Championship clash with Kent petered out into a rain-affected draw.

After three evenly contested days Glamorgan were set to chase 377 for victory on an excellent pitch at The Mote in Maidstone, but heavy rain throughout the morning limited play to just 32 afternoon overs.

At least the Welsh could take pride in an unbroken opening stand of 203 between Maher (123) and his skipper Steve James (76), even though it had been against some particularly friendly Kentish bowling.

Maher, who until this match boasted a modest top score of 38 against Essex, reached his first three-figure milestone from 108 balls and with 13 fours and a brace of sixes.

The left-hander from Innisfail went on the counter-attack once play did start at 3.30pm and scored his 82 runs in the shortened session from just 74 balls.

At the other end James took a more measured approach, scoring his runs from 133 balls and was happy to shake hands on a draw with his Kent counterpart Matthew Fleming come 5.30pm.

Kent took ten points and Glamorgan nine from a game that both sides had aspirations to win going into the final day, but rain had the final say.
