Player Biography

Joey Evison joined Kent for 2022’s Royal London Cup, on loan from Nottinghamshire, before joining on a permanent deal from the 2023 season.

Right-handed Evison played for England alongside his would-be Kent teammates Hamid Qadri & Jordan Cox in the 2020 Under-19 Cricket World Cup, scoring 59 in England’s Plate Final against Sri Lanka, & taking three tournament wickets.

After an appearance at Suffolk and a full debut away at Worcestershire Rapids, Evison announced his arrival to Kent in the Royal London Cup with a career-best List A score of 109 against Glamorgan at Sophia Gardens.

Across the tournament, he scored 330 runs & took seven wickets as Kent lifted a One-Day Cup for the first time since 1974.

His score of 97 with the bat & two wickets, including the wicket to seal victory in the Final at Trent Bridge, earned him a Player of the Match Award & his place in Kent cricketing folklore before he had joined the county permanently.

His loan deal was extended to include Kent’s LV= Insurance County Championship run-in, where he helped Kent stay in Division One, taking his maiden first-class wicket for Kent against Somerset, dismissing James Rew in an innings-victory.
