Evison said-

“I couldn’t be more excited about joining Kent Cricket,” Evison said. “I recognize that I’m still young but I’m hungry for first-team cricket and very much hope I’ll be able to achieve this at Canterbury, as well as helping the team to success in the coming years.”

Kent’s director of cricket, Paul Downton, said:

“I’m delighted that Joey has chosen to join Kent. He’s an exciting talent with the potential to bat in the top order and also be a threat with the ball. He’s a really hard worker and we’re convinced that he will be a quick learner too, as opportunities come his way.
