ALAS for Northants, the glories of a century partnership by Smith and Jones was followed by another from House and Hughes at Fenner's, where Ed, Robin, Will and Quentin topped the bill for Cambridge University.

Robin Jones set the tempo with a virtuoso fifty containing six fours and a five before Ed Smith, on 59 and in splendid form, was run out on captain Anurag Singh's impossible call.

Hard-hitting Will House stormed past his half-century off 63 balls with eight fours and a six, leading the charge into a second century stand with Quentin Hughes (32).

A measure of cheer for the county came with four maiden firstclass wickets for Jason Fred Brown, an off- spinner by any other name.
