YORKSHIRE failed to score the ten runs they needed off two overs for maximum batting points, but then thrashed 68 off 11 before they were all out for 460.

With Barry McCarthy coming on two overs before the 110-over cut-off, Andrew Hodd took two off his first ball to big cheers from the fans, but was unable to add.

Off the last ball of the over he went for a big hit and miscued to point, then Steve Patterson played out a maiden against Graham Onions.

As both he and Chris Rusworth finished with two for 101, Onions again bowled for well over an hour with his usual lack of luck, sinking to his haunches when Azeem Rafiq inside-edged him just past leg stump.

Rafiq also edged through the vacant third slip area as he and Hodd brought the fifth point within sight following the early loss of Tim Bresnan, whose his off stump was knocked out by Rushworth.

Patterson's caution in the 110th over spilt over into the next, when he tried to withdraw his bat and played on to give McCarthy his third wicket.

It meant that, as against Nottinghamshire last week, the Irishman had the best figures, but they were spoilt when Jack Brooks set about him.

After hitting the last two balls of the 113th over for four, he repeated it two overs later after Rafiq had already hit McCarthy for four and three.

Rafiq departed for 45 when he went down the track to Scott Borthwick and presented Michael Richardson with his first stumping of the season.

There was another first – a wicket for Paul Collingwood – when he bowled Brooks for 36 to wrap up the innings.
