Needing to bat for more than four sessions, Yorkshire they were all out in 45 overs and were beaten by 295 runs.

The damage was done when four wickets fell in 11 overs before tea and the visitors were knocked over for 122 in the extra half-hour claimed by Durham.

Adam Lyth, Anthony McGrath and Jacques Rudolph were all dismissed without scoring by Graham Onions, and Andrew Gale was caught behind for 19 off Steve Harmison to leave the visitors teetering on 31-4.

Set a victory target of 418 by Durham's declaration, Yorkshire lost Lyth in the second over of their second innings, lbw to a ball from Onions that was slanted across him but cut back into him.

The visitors were 0-1 and that became 10-2 when McGrath was also lbw to Onions. The England Lions seamer then produced a jaffa to have Rudolph caught behind in the same over, and it was 10-3.

Joe Sayers's resistance ended on 22 when he tamely edged Ben harmison to third slip; Harmison junior then bowled Adil Rashid, and Gerard Brophy played on to Mark Davies.

Darren Gough also played on to Davies, and Steve Harmison returned to have Matthew Hoggard caught at slip and bowl Deon Kruis to complete the victory.

In the afternoon, Dale Benkenstein (86no)and di Venuto (45no) took the game away from Yorkshire after the home side had been reduced to 112-6.

Matthew Hoggard, Tim Bresnan and Deon Kruis each claimed two wickets as the visitors battled back on the third morning and gave themselves a small chance of victory.

Kruis had Phil Mustard and Paul Wiseman lbw; Hoggard took two quick wickets after replacing Ben Sanderson in the Yorkshire side.The seamer had Michael Stoneman lbw for 19 and then induced Neil McKenzie to edge to the slips.

Hoggard was released by England after the toss at Lord's on Thursday and has arrived in Durham to help Yorkshire in their uphill battle to avoid defeat. He was straight into the action, bowling the second over of the day.

Earlier, Tim Bresnan had Coetzer caught in the slips for 14, lifting his tally for the match to six. He previously trapped makeshift opener Ben Harmison lbw with an inswinger.

However, the seventh-wicket pair put on 93 to leave Yorkshire facing a mammoth task to avoid defeat.

Di Venuto was unable to bat in his accustomed position at the top of the order, having injured his finger in the field, but he was still able to score freely at No 8.

The home side had a 212-run first-innings lead but declined to enforce the follow-on.



DAY 2 ACTION

Yorkshire were skittled for 194 in response to Durham's 406, despite Adil Rashid's defiant half-century.

They collapsed to 50-6 before Tim Bresnan and Rashid put on 85 for the seventh wicket. Rashid added 55 for the ninth wicket with Deon Kruis (22), but it was not enough to earn Yorkshire a batting point, let alone reach the follow-on target.

Durham, though, declined to enforce the follow-on and reached 16 without loss by the close, a lead of 228.

Graham Onions was the pick of the bowlers, claiming 5-75 before Mark Davies and then Steve Harmison removed Kruis and Rashid in successive balls. Rashid made 70.

Openers Adam Lyth and Joe Sayers were both dismissed cheaply. Lyth was dismissed for eight in his first Championship innings. The debutant started confidently but had already been dropped by Neil McKenzie at first slip off Onions when he edged Harmison to the same fielder two balls later, with the score on 16.

Sayers looked in good touch until he edged a good ball from Onions to McKenzie at first slip for eight, and it was 20-2.

Anthony McGrath was run out by a direct throw from substitute fielder Will Gidman at mid-on, attempting a quick single after digging out a yorker from the Onions.

Andrew Gale was the fourth man to depart, edging an angled delivery from excellent Onions low to second slip. He had made 13.

Rashid and Bresnan came together when Jacques Rudolph and Gerard Brophy were dismissed in successive balls: Brophy drove loosely at Onions and was caught behind, and Rudolph was then beaten by a fine delivery from Harmison, also edging to Phil Mustard behind the stumps.

Bresnan made 46 and was beginning to score freely when he and Darren also perished in quick succession.

All-rounder Bresnan lost his middle stump and Gough was bowled for one.

Kruis connected with some lusty blows before edging Mark Davies, and Rashid was last man out slogging at Harmison. Ben Sanderson did not face a ball.

In the morning, Rashid wrapped up the Durham innings shortly after the home side had secured maximum batting points, having Paul Wiseman caught at slip for 60.

Durham lost centurion Michael di Venuto, lbw to Bresnan, before they had added to their overnight score of 337-6, but the last three wickets put on 69 runs.

Bresnan struck with his second ball of the day, beating di Venuto with an inswinger, and Kruis also made a rapid impact when he was introduced to the attack: he ended a partnership of 37 when he had Onions caught at point for 16, reducing the home side to 374-8.

Wiseman and Onions survived several scares to take their side towards maximum batting points.

Kruis then had Steve Harmison caught at gully for a duck, attempting a pull, with the score on 384, but Wiseman hit out to ensure that Durham reached 400.

Bresnan was the pick of the bowlers, finishing with figures of 4-73. Debutant Sanderson was not used on the second day.
