Derbyshire are 214-5 in the 43rd over.

Derbyshire 207-4, 40.1 overs

Guest stay ended

Brooke Guest is caught behind off Ben Cliff, 14.

Derbyshire 194-4 in the 38th over.

Martin Andersson 66 and Harry Came 56.

An early appeal goes begging for George Hill.

He recently pulled Jafer Chohan for six, on 40, which burst through the hands of Will Bennison at deep square-leg.

Yorkshire need a wicket

Derbyshire have advanced to 75-0 after 17 overs, and Yorkshire could do with breaking this stand between Harry Came, who has 35, and Martin Andersson on 29.

Jafer Chohan is into the attack on his List A debut for Yorkshire.

Bess into the attack

Dom Bess has brought himself on, in place of Ben Cliff.

Derbyshire will be very happy with this start.

They are 54-0 in the 13th over.

Harry Came 27 and Martin Andersson 17.

First change for Yorkshire

Ben Cliff is into the attack for Yorkshire in place of George Hill.

A man who has struck in his first over the last two games running, can he make the breakthrough here.

Derbyshire 28-0 after eight overs.

Derbyshire 20-0 after five overs

Strange old start this.

Plenty of plays and misses, but Derbyshire’s cause has been advanced by five wides from George Hill and then four byes. Both short balls which climbed.

Ben Coad sharing the new ball

A George Hill maiden to start with against Harry Came. Now for Ben Coad against Martin Andersson.

George Hill has the new ball

All set to go here at North Marine Road.

George Hill has the new ball, with Martin Andersson and Harry Came opening the batting for Derbyshire.

Yorkshire win toss and bowl

Yorkshire: Adam Lyth, Will Luxton, Will Bennison, James Wharton, Sam Whiteman, George Hill, Fin Bean w, Dom Bess c, Jafer Chohan, Ben Coad, Ben Cliff.

Good morning...

From a dry and bright Scarborough, where we’ve not got the wall to wall sunshine of recent weeks but things are settled on the weather front.

This is Yorkshire’s penultimate fixture in the One-Day Cup group stage, and a win will put Yorkshire on the verge of knockout qualification.

Qualification can’t be confirmed today, but it may yet transpire that one more win is enough for a top three finish.

The aim, however, is two wins to have a chance at a home semi-final for the second year running.

We head into this match on the back of a defeat at Lord’s against group leaders Middlesex on Sunday. They actually play third-placed Durham at Banks Homes Riverside today.

Derbyshire are in must win territory. This is their sixth game of eight. But, with three to play, they only have eight points, half as many as Middlesex, Yorkshire and Durham, who sit in the top three. They beat Sussex at home on Sunday.

We have previewed this fixture with Will Bennison, who made a pleasing 63 at Lord’s, his maiden first-team fifty.

That’s linked below, while the stream is available at the top of the page.

Enjoy the day.

Durham v Middlesex

Yorkshire are sandwiched in between Middlesex and Durham in the group, and they play each other at Banks Homes Riverside today.

That game starts at 1.30pm.
