Abbott leads Hampshire fightback

AFP, LONDON: South African fast bowler Kyle Abbott led a Hampshire fightback as he took seven for 41 on the second day of their County Championship opener away to Yorkshire at Headingley on Saturday.
The visitors collapsed to 141 all out after Yorkshire made 273, including a hundred from skipper Gary Ballance, in this First Division clash.
But Abbott, who controversially called time on his career as a South Africa international in favour of the financial security of a county deal, then sparked a revival by Hampshire as Yorkshire were bowled out for 197 in their second innings.
