Key reappointed as Kent captain

Kent have reappointed their England batsman Rob Key as captain for next season.

Key, who took over the captaincy from David Fulton in 2006, led his county to Twenty20 Trophy glory last summer - and is predicting imminent new signings in pursuit of further success in 2008.

"I am delighted to be given the chance to captain the club again in 2008," he said. "We made good progress in 2007, and I believe we have the players to do even better next season.

"We will be announcing exciting new additions to the squad shortly with a view to building further on the success achieved last year."
