YORKSHIRE V SUSSEX - DAY 4

Younus Khan and Jacques Rudolph started solidly for Yorkshire in difficult conditions. Younus Khan moved to 31 before being dismissed by Martin-Jenkins. Hopes of Yorkshire pushing the score a long more quickly were dashed by a rare failure for Brophy who went to Mushtaq for 0. Rudolph batted well and made a 134 ball 46 before falling to Naved. A good partnership from Rashid 49 not out and Bresnan 27 not out followed up to the Yorkshire declaration at 284 for6.

Yorkshire struck early when Sussex batted, Gillespie and Kruis took a wicket each to reduce the visitors to 15 for 2. They had moved to 57 for 2 when rain effectively ended the game as a draw.
