Meet the Kent squad for the 2013 season - minus a couple of important faces.

The squad interrupted their pre-season training at a freezing St Lawrence Ground on Monday afternoon to pose for the official team picture before returning to the warmer confines of the Cowdrey Stand to meet the media.

Newly-appointed skipper James Tredwell missed the occasion as he's on England duty in New Zealand while batsman Sam Northeast is in Dubai with the MCC team taking part in a pre-season competition.

During the day Geraint Jones was revealed as Tredwell's vice-captain by coach Jimmy Adams. Click here for more.
