Yorkshire 362-4 v Surrey, Day One, Rothesay County Championship, Division One
Recalled England quick Matthew Fisher removed Test team-mates Joe Root and Harry Brook just after lunch but his former county Yorkshire enjoyed much the better of day one against Surrey at Headingley thanks to unbeaten centurions Adam Lyth and Jonny Bairstow.
Fisher - in his second season with Surrey - played the key role in reducing the White Rose to 121 for four in this star-studded Rothesay County Championship fixture, only for experienced fifth-wicket pair Lyth and Bairstow to turn things around through the bulk of the afternoon and evening as inserted Yorkshire closed on 362 for four.
