Wayne Parnell has passed a late fitness test ahead of Kent’s One Day Cup match at home to Sussex on Friday.
This follows a heart scare on Tuesday during Kent’s One Day Cup match with Somerset in which the Proteas paceman left the field as a precaution.
The 27-year-old, who has a history of heart-related problems, was taken to a cardiologist after experiencing pain in his chest playing for Kent against Somerset on Tuesday.
