Success breeds success. Yorkshire will be hoping to build on their recent progress against Warwickshire at Scarborough in the County Championship match which starts on Wednesday. The season has suddenly come alive for the Tykes. By beating Durham within three days the Yorkshire team earnt a well deserved day off. The Warwickshire game has followed in quick succession and the Tykes will be hoping that victories are like buses.

The victory over Durham lifted Yorkshire off the bottom of the County Championship Table by just 1 point over Middlesex. Yorkshire now have a chance to make some ground over rivals in the next match as Middlesex play top of the table Sussex and the other teams towards the bottom don't play at all.

Yorkshire will be without Darren Lehmann due to the calf injury he picked up in the Durham game. He will be replaced by exciting prospect Adil Rashid who has been in blistering form in the Yorkshire 2nds.

The side to face Warwickshire in the Liverpool Victoria County Championship match at Scarborough will be selected from the following squad...

C White (capt) 13
J J Sayers 22
A McGrath 10
M J Lumb 15
A Rashid
A W Gale 26
T T Bresnan 16
G L Brophy (w/k) 20
R K J Dawson 21
J N Gillespie 44
G J Kruis 5
S A Patterson
