County Championship: Kent set for first-innings lead over Northants
Kent were 287-5 after day two of their County Championship game with Northamptonshire at Canterbury, trailing by 16 with five first-innings wickets remaining.
Having dismissed Northamptonshire with the final delivery on day one, for a total they felt was around 150 to 200 below par, Kent were confident going into the second day, but any hopes that Zak Crawley might find some form after his struggles with England were dashed in the fourth over, when he was out for five, chipping White to Luke Procter at mid-wicket.
Compton and Denly responded with a stand of 91 for the third wicket. It was a partnership of contrasting styles, with the former England player Denly's innings initially seeming like it could end at any second, while the possible future-England player Compton's felt like it might never end at all. Kent were 74-2 at lunch, after which Denly looked significantly happier. He reached 50 by cracking successive Neesham deliveries for four and six and it was Compton who went first, caught at first slip by Neesham for 34 after edging White.
