In 2022, Kent County Cricket Club competed in the 2022 County Championship, the 2022 One-Day Cup and the 2022 T20 Blast. The season was the sixth in charge for head coach, and former player, Matthew Walker. Sam Billings retained the club captaincy that he was first awarded in 2018.[1] Daniel Bell-Drummond and Jack Leaning was named as vice-captains for limited overs and first-class matches, respectively.[2]
Michael Yardy left his position as batting coach in November 2021 to return to his former county Sussex.[3] The following month, Kent announced that former Netherlands international Ryan ten Doeschate would join the county as the new batting coach.[4]
On 17 September 2022, Kent defeated Lancashire by 21 runs in the final at Trent Bridge to win the 2022 One-Day Cup.[5] The victory ended a run of eight consecutive defeats in List A finals going back to their last title in 1978.[6]
