Mark Benson, the Kent captain, will miss Saturday's Benson and Hedges Cup final against Lancashire at Lord's after suffering a double fracture to the third finger of his right hand - the same finger he injured in the semi-final win over Somerset - on Sunday. He is likely to be out for three weeks.

David Millns, the Leicestershire fast bowler, could miss the rest of the season after a scan showed he needs an operation on an Achilles tendon injury.
