Kent take the upper hand
Sports Reporter
The touring Bangladesh A's last three-day match in England was heading Kent's way despite the visitors taking a first innings lead in what has been a low-scoring affair at St Lawrence Ground in Canterbury.Bangladesh A paceman Syed Rasel had taken the last two Kent wickets on the second morning yesterday to finish with career-best figures of seven for 50 as Kent were slittled out for 153 giving the A side a first innings lead of 32 runs. But the batsmen spoiled all the good work from the left-armer as they were all out for 155 in the second innings. Only skipper Shahriar Nafees showed any character with 58(85 balls). Antigua-born quick bowler Robert Joseph was the main wrecker for Kent as he claimed five for 19. Chasing 188, Kent were cruising on 96 for two 45 minutes before scheduled close. On Day One, Bangladesh A bowlers had staged a superb comeback reducing Kent to 40 for six before a late order rally boosted them to 123 for 8 by the close.
