YORKSHIRE V KENT - DAY 2

Kent moved into a strong position during another day wrecked by rain. Darren Gough struck early getting Tredwell lbw for 44. Denly and Stevens then put on an excellent partnership of 114, Stevens was in agressive form, collecting runs with ease from Yorkshire's spin twins. Lawson in particular was dealt some severe treatment and his six overs went for 49. Rashid bowled better as the day went on and it was he who dismissed Stevens for a brilliant 87 (84 balls, 11 fours and 3 sixes). Denly moved to three figures before falling to Rashid for 114 (212 balls, 12 fours). Kent stood at 294 for 5 and thanks to 46 not out from Jones they moved to 343 for 5 when the rains came. Rashid has taken 2 for 74.
