YORKSHIRE V KENT - DAY 1

A damp start to Scarborough's 400th First Class game. Only 41 overs were possible, Kent who won the toss had the better of the day. Key and Denly gave the visitors a solid start with a partnership of 56. Tim Bresnan, with the aid of catches by keeper Gerard Brophy then struck twice. He had Key for 21 and then the vital wicket of Van Jaarsveld for 5 to leave Kent 66 for 2. That was the last success of the day for Yorkshire as promising opener Denly finished 60 not out (122 balls) and Tredwell 40 not out (57 balls) Kent closed on 135 for 2. Bresnan has taken 2 for 37.
