Derbyshire had to follow on despite scoring 400 in their first innings on day three against Gloucestershire.

The home side resumed day on 210-2 in reply to Kent's 561 and added 78 before spinner Adam Riley (3-78) got rid of Wayne Madsen for 93.

Alex Hughes made 66 but the Derbyshire innings fell away as Ivan Thomas finished with figures of 3-45.

Kent enforced the follow on and the hosts closed 78 runs behind on 83-2 with Riley (2-29) taking two wickets.

Kent spinner Adam Riley told 成人快手 Radio Kent:

"The target was to get the follow-on enforced, but we have bowled well enough to keep victory in sight. The pitch is misbehaving by keeping a bit low, so I was trying to keep it straight and get lbw in the game.

"We haven't been able to play a spinner because we've been playing on green decks, but I have always been in and around the side, and I've been waiting for the right pitch.

"We've had a couple of scenarios this season that have been like this, and there will be a big push that may involve batting later on. We'll wear them down to get the wickets."
