LONDON, England, CMC – Veteran West Indies batsman Shiv Chanderpaul lashed his second century in four games for Lancashire to keep them in line for a victory while ex-Test seamer Corey Collymore’s four-wicket haul spurred Sussex to an innings triumph yesterday.

The 36-year-old Chanderpaul reeled off 120 as Lancashire, leading Kent by 17 runs on first innings, were dismissed for 321 in their second innings of their Division One encounter at St Lawrence Ground.

At the close, Kent were 84 for two still requiring a further 255 runs for victory.

Chanderpaul, who ironically suffered the ignominy of a first-ball duck in Lancs’ first innings, struck 14 fours and faced 234 balls in an innings that lasted nearly 5-1/2 hours.

The left-hander added 89 for the fifth wicket with Gareth Cross (50) after Lancashire slipped to 130 for four, and eventually reached his century with a four to deep mid-wicket.

Chanderpaul fell to the new ball when Simon Cook (4-62) trapped him lbw.

At Horsham, right-armer Collymore captured four for 50 as Derbyshire crumbled for 225 in their second innings to lose by an innings and 109 runs.

The 32-year-old, who took 93 wickets in 30 Tests, continued from where he left off on Thursday when he removed Paul Borrington (1) and Leeward Islands batsman Chesney Hughes (4) cheaply in reducing Derby to 27 for two at the close.

Yesterday, he got the first wicket of the day when he had Wayne Madsen caught at short leg by Ben Brown for 23, laying the foundation for out-of-favour left-arm spinner Monty Panesar (4-67) to run through the middle and lower order.

Four batsmen stroked centuries on Thursday as Sussex piled up 576 for three declared in response to Derby’s 242 all out.

The victory put Sussex back on top the Division Two tables.
