Yorkshire coach Andrew Gale
“I think if you’d have said to us at the start of the day, ‘You’ll bat for the full day’, we’d have taken that.
“Surrey bowled well in periods. It would have been nice for one bloke to go on and make a big score and for us to get a lead of over 300, but we’re definitely in a good position.
“I’m always hungry for more and for us to be better, and there have been periods in this game where we’ve not been at our best. But if we can bowl like we can do, there’s certainly enough in the pitch to get 10 wickets tomorrow.
“It’s just a typical outground pitch where it’s deteriorating. I wouldn’t say it’s going up and down massively, but we saw some balls from Morne (Morkel) fly through well over Ben Foakes’ head. There’s some variation in the pitch, and there will be some up and down tomorrow.
“There’s certainly some spin there, which will bring Kesh (Maharaj) into the game. We’re happy.
“Kesh could be key. They’ve got their lefties at the top, and there’s rough outside their stump.
“But Surrey are a good team who bat all the way down. We’re going to have be at our best and take all our chances.”
6.16pm Close. Another compelling day sees Yorkshire finish on 303-9 from 96 overs of their second innings, leading by 268. Coad 16 and Olivier at the crease. What a final day in prospect tomorrow.

Lunch Yorkshire have enjoyed an excellent third morning against Surrey at Scarborough, underpinned by a 94-run opening stand between Adam Lyth and Will Fraine.
The hosts’ chances of a third Specsavers County Championship victory of the season have been significantly boosted by a pair who added 116 in the first innings.
Yorkshire started day three trailing by 35 and reached lunch at 104-1 from 31 overs, a lead of 69.
Fraine hit two sixes, pulled and cut, off Jordan Clark in 43 before edging Ryan Patel’s fourth ball to Clark at gully in the 26th over.
Surrey, struggling to keep up with the over-rate, have not made Yorkshire play enough on a pitch offering extra bounce.
Lyth has moved to 44 alongside Gary Ballance on eight.
12.42pm OUT! Fraine (43) caught by Clark in the gully off Patel, who is in his first over. 94-1. Yorkshire lead is 59. Lyth has 42.

As I type, Foakes has dropped a tough diving chance in front of first slip off Clarke, with Fraine on 29. It goes for four to add insult to injury. 74-0.

11.37am Yorkshire have made a healthy start to their second innings at 21-0, trailing by 14. Surrey have been tidy but not really threatening through Morkel and Curran. Lyth has 9 and Fraine 8.
11.03am We’re up and running for day three. Lyth leaves five balls of the day’s first over from Morkel alone and then plays the last back up the pitch – aerially for a moment. Yorkshire trail by 35.

Good morning from Scarborough, where we have been greeted by another sunny morning ahead of day three.
This is a key day in this fixture, and we can’t wait.
Yorkshire will begin their second innings 35 runs behind Surrey, who were bowled out just before close for 362 in their first innings.
If Yorkshire can get in the region of 300 themselves, they will be very confident of forcing a third victory of the season in their eighth match.
Neither side expects the pitch to deteriorate significantly, although Keshav Maharaj admitted last night that there are a few foot holes which are aiding turn. He claimed three wickets alongside Ben Coad.
Surrey, however, believe they can bowl much better than they did in the first innings.
Fingers crossed, they don’t, hey!
Enjoy the day. We get underway at 11am.
