Adam Lyth has six and Fin Bean 10.

There was a scare for Bean when Leicestershire thought they had him caught low down at third slip by Scott Currie off Tom Scriven, but the umpires decided that the ball didn’t carry.

3.15: A damaging 10th-wicket stand of 93 between Harry Swindells and Will Davis comes to an end as Swindells edges Matty Revis to wicektkeeper Jonny Tattersall as Leicestershire are bowled out for 233 in reply to Yorkshire’s 155.

Swindells made 73 from 78 balls with nine fours, while Davis was unbeaten on 44 from 51 deliveries with seven fours.

12.20: Wickets continue to fall as Ben Cliff strikes with his second delivery, having Louis Kimber caught at third slip by Fin Bean for four.

The batsman seemed to think that the ball had hit him outside the line. 0-1.

10.33: Short and not so sweet for Yorkshire who are all out just three balls into the day without addition to the total.

Jordan Thompson was the man to fall, very well caught by wicketkeeper Ben Cox diving low to his left off Tom Scriven.

Scriven finished with 3-47 and Will Davis 4-28.

10.15: All set for a 10,30 start at Grace Road where it’s bright and sunny for day three.

The situation of the game, after Wednesday’s washout, is that Yorkshire are 155-9 in their first innings, accrued during the 38.5 overs possible on day one.

Jordan Thompson (two) and Ben Cliff (yet to score) are the not out batsmen.

Some time can be made up today, so 104 overs are possible – weather permitting.
