Kent are fighting to salvage something from their LV= Insurance County Championship Division 1 game against Essex at Canterbury after day two on Tuesday.
Feroze Khushi’s maiden first-class century (164) came from 228 balls and included two sixes and 18 fours, while Matt Critchley made 90 and Ben Allison 53 to get the visitors to 573 all out.
Sam Cook and Jamie Porter then claimed 2-14 and 2-30 respectively, against a Kent side already hindered by injuries to captain Sam Billings and Matt Milnes.
Jack Leaning and Jordan Cox were the not out batsmen on 19 and one when the umpires brought the players off for bad light with six overs remaining.
