Kent skipper Rob Key is set to return to the side for their LV=County Championship Division 2 clash against fellow strugglers Leicestershire on Tuesday.

Key, pictured, has missed the last four games with a wrist injury and looks set to open the innings with Joe Denly, who has been sidelined for two matches with a similar problem.

The pair practised at Grace Road on Monday.

Seventeen-year-old Daniel Bell-Drummond, who made 42 in his one-day debut for the county in the 86-run Clydesdale Bank 40 win over Worcestershire on Sunday, is with the squad as cover.

Adam Ball is back after skippering England under-19s, including Bell-Drummond, in the 4-2 series defeat against South Africa which ended at Canterbury on Saturday, while Azhar Mahmood and Wahab Riaz are also named in the side as Kent aim to end a run of three successive four-day defeats.
