Tea report Yorkshire endured a tough afternoon with the bat against Durham at Emerald Headingley, losing six wickets for only 14 runs at one stage.
On the first day of their friendly, the White Rose slipped from 99-3 to 114-9, three of which went to Ben Raine and two to fellow seamer Paul Coughlin.
The friendly nature of this clash meant new signing Dawid Malan was given the chance to return to the crease having only scored 12 off 23 balls during the morning session.
He came back with the score at 108-6 and reached tea unbeaten on 15. Yorkshire will begin the evening session on 139-9 from 57 overs, with more players being given a second chance to bat if more wickets fall. Jordan Thompson is unbeaten on 13.
Adam Lyth – Yorkshire’s top-scorer with 60 – was the first afternoon wicket to fall when he chipped Matthew Salisbury to mid-on, leaving the score at 99-4 in the 36th over.
Harry Brook was lbw to Raine, who also had George Hill caught behind and Jonny Tattersall lbw (109-7 in the 43rd over).
Matthew Waite was then well caught at third slip by a diving Matty Potts off Paul Coughlin in the 45th over before the same bowler had Matthew Fisher lbw in the 47th – 113-9.
Malan bettered his morning score of 12 shortly before the tea break, when he was facing the part-time off-spin of former Yorkshire batsman Alex Lees.
Lees has only taken two first-class wickets in his career, Malan being the first during the 2016 County Championship title-decider between Yorkshire and Middlesex at Lord’s when a final day declaration was being set up.
3.44pm Tea. Yorkshire have reached 139-9 from 57 overs. Malan 15 and Thompson 13. Durham’s session – they claimed 6-14 at one stage.
Alex Lees has been brought into the Durham attack to bowl a bit of off-spin. He’s bowling to Dawid Malan. Lees only has two first-class wickets to his name, one of which is Malan – 2016 end of season Championship decider at Lord’s trying to set up a declaration. #OneRose

11.15am Yorkshire are 7-0 without loss following a lovely cover driven boundary just now from Kohler-Cadmore against Rushworth. We’re in the fifth over.
10.31am Yorkshire will be batting today, and here is the squad: Birkhead, Duke and Tattersall all sharing keeping duties. Brook, Fisher, Fraine, Hill, Kohler-Cadmore, Leech, Lyth, Malan, Patterson c, Poysden, Shutt, Thompson, Waite.
Good morning from Emerald Headingley, where we begin our second and final friendly against Durham having been delayed by yesterday’s rain.
Quite how this match will play out from here is TBC at the moment. We will update as and when possible, although it is expected Yorkshire will begin this game with bat in hand.
That means an early chance to see debutant Dawid Malan at the crease, approximately nine months after signing for the White Rose county.
While this is Yorkshire’s second pre-season friendly, it is Durham’s one and only. Alex Lees will be returning to his old stomping ground.
We begin at 11am. Enjoy the day.
