From Headingley, where it\u2019s a sunny start to the day ahead of our Rothesay County Championship clash with Surrey.<\/p>\n
The White Rose are bidding for win number two at the sixth attempt, Surrey likewise. The difference between the two counties is that third-placed Surrey have drawn their other four games, while eighth-placed Yorkshire have drawn two and lost two.<\/p>\n
Yorkshire are coming into this fixture on the back of a defeat to Warwickshire at Edgbaston, while Surrey drew with Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge last weekend.<\/p>\n
Harry Brook and Joe Root are available for Yorkshire, while England duo Matthew Fisher and Jamie Smith are in Surrey\u2019s squad.<\/p>\n
This is the final Division One game before the start of the Vitality Blast next week.<\/p>\n
We have previewed this fixture with Root and Anthony McGrath. You can read that via the link below.<\/p>\n
We also spoke to biographer Ian Lockwood for our bygones piece. He is the author of Ted Peate \u2013 10 drunks and a parson. In 1883, Peate took figures of 5-8 against Surrey at Holbeck. That piece is also linked below.<\/p>\n
