Yorkshire CCC v Worcestershire CCC updates

1.55: Only one over has been possible after lunch due to bad light. There has been no addition to the total, with Yorkshire 24-0.

The sky remains very dark, and the full covers are being brought on by the groundstaff.

12.40: Yorkshire have reached 24-0 at lunch, with Adam Lyth on 10 and Fin Bean 12.

12.05: Worcestershire are all out for 389, Joe Leach the last man to fall as he top-edges a sweep off Dom Bess to Ben Coad at short-fine leg.

Leach made 36, Bess the most successful bowler with 3-55.

12.00: Very dark now at Headingley, where Worcestershire are 383-9.

Ben Gibbon was the latest to fall, drawn forward and caught behind off Matty Revis for three, after Dom Bess bowled Ben Allison for a career-best 75.

10.55: Worcestershire have clinched promotion courtesy of reaching 300 and a second batting bonus point.

Josh Baker turned a ball from Matt Milnes for two runs into the offside, sparking jubilant scenes on the visitors’ balcony.

Baker fell to the very next delivery, caught by Matty Revis at mid-on off a leading edge off Milnes.

Earlier, Milnes trapped Brett D’Oliveira, the Worcestershire captain, with the score on 299, moments after D’Oliveira had brought up his hundred.

The score is now 303-7, with Ben Allison on 33 and Joe Leach yet to score.

10.15: All set for a prompt start at Headingley, although there is talk around the ground that there could be some bad weather from lunchtime onwards.

If so, there may only be a small window to advance the match forward, with Worcestershire 280-5 after the opening day.

Brett D’Oliveira, their captain, will resume 10 short of a century, with Ben Allison on 31.
