YORKSHIRE V SURREY - DAY 1
A poor start for Yorkshire after winning the toss, with Nicholson sending back Sayers 5 and White 6 with only 24 on the board. Younus Khan then joined the inform Anthony McGrath and they took the score to 67 before Younus Khan fell to Riki Clarke for 29 (30 balls, 5 fours). There was a rare failure for Jacques Rudolph who also went to Clarke for 4. Gerard Brophy was not at his most aggressive and he made 22 (44 balls) before becoming Clarke's third victim. McGrath had been playing well and went past 50, his partnership with Adil Rashid put on 67 and Yorkshire started to move into a good position. They were then undone by the Indian Harbhajan Singh. He removed McGrath for a well made 72 (146 balls, 10 fours) and then he sent back Bresnan for 3 and Gillespie for 3. When bad light halted play Yorkshire were 203 for 8. Adil Rashid is on 42 (91 balls, 6 fours). Nicholson has taken 3 for 52 and Harbhajan Singh 3 for 34.
