Match Notes

  • McKay puts Leics in sight of long-awaited win

    Leicestershire's Clint McKay starred with bat and ball in blustery Canterbury, where 15 wickets fell in a day to leave the visitors with a real chance of ending a Championship winless run that dates back to September 2012

  • Stevens, Denly provide Kent response

    Darren Stevens took five wickets and Joe Denly scored a painstaking half-century as Kent battled their way back into contention on the second day against Leicestershire.

  • Cosgrove makes hundred as Leicestershire begin well

    Leicestershire skipper Mark Cosgrove hit his first century of the summer to help the visitors recover from a sticky start during a rain-affected opening day against Kent in Canterbury.
