Wickets fall in Canterbury

Wickets fall in Canterbury  Empty Wickets fall in Canterbury

Post by net.com Fri Aug 12, 2011 6:23 am

Sixteen wickets fell on day two of Kent's LV= County Championship match with Surrey, with Darren Stevens claiming a career-best spell of 7-21 as the hosts fought back at Canterbury.

With the visitors starting the day on 54-0, Stevens used his swing in a cross wind and thickening cloud while paceman Wahab Riaz also got in on the act as Surrey were dismissed for a paltry 127 inside 44 overs.

Stevens removed Steven Davies (23), Zander de Bruyn (1), Mark Ramprakash (0) and Tom Maynard (16) before mopping up the tail of Yasir Arafat, Tim Linley and Jade Dernbach.

Riaz, meanwhile, had Rory Hamilton-Brown (34) run out and also claimed the scalp of Jason Roy. Surrey's capitulation saw them lose five wickets for 10 runs in the space of 37 deliveries at one point, allowing Kent to secure a surprise first-innings lead of 139.

However, they then lost six wickets of their own during a chilly final session, reaching 167-6 at stumps, with Tim Linley removing Denly, Sam Northeast and Geraint Jones (22).

Stevens, Martin van Jaarsveld and James Tredwell also fell late in the day as a watchful, unbeaten 70 - the only half-century of the match to date - from Kent captain Robert Keyheld the innings together.

Day One

Surrey ended the opening day of their LV= County Championship Division Two clash with Kent on top after bowling the hosts out for 266.

All six bowlers used took wickets before openers Rory Hamilton-Brown and Steve Davies then took 50 runs off the deficit in the last 12 overs of the day.

It was a disappointing return for Kent, whose openers Joe Denly and Rob Key added 80 for the first wicket inside 20 overs as they capitalised on seemingly ideal conditions.

But wickets fell at regular intervals after Zander de Bruyn had Key caught by Mark Ramprakash for 35, Denly the next to fall when he was trapped in front by Tim Linley one short of a half-century.

Sam Northeast (20) became du Bruyn's second victim while Martin van Jaarsveld (13) and Darren Stevens (31) also played themselves in before getting out while the return of new ball bowler Yasir Arafat put the game firmly in Surrey's favour.

He bowled Geraint Jones for a ponderous nine before accounting for James Tredwell and Adam Ball cheaply. Only some late hitting from Matt Coles and Wahab Riaz held up Surrey, the latter making 34 off 44 balls as the pair added 36 for the ninth wicket.

Surrey had 12 overs to see out before stumps, skipper Hamilton-Brown (27) and Davies (23) remaining steadfast.
