Northamptonshire’s top three batters all hit centuries as they battered Kent on day one of their Rothesay County Championship Division Two match at Canterbury, posting a mammoth 409 for one.
Openers Ricardo Vasconcelos and Luke Procter hit 127 and 131 not out respectively, as part of a record-breaking stand of 224 for the visitors against Kent - and when the partnership was finally broken, Calvin Harrison blazed an unbeaten 124, his second consecutive century against the Spitfires.
Afterwards Vasconcelos said it was a sign of the attacking brand of cricket the club wanted to play.
