The Division One leaders also equalled the first-class record – seven – for the number of players making half-centuries without passing three figures. After Ollie Pope and Ryan Patel had made 96 and 76 respectively on day one, Jamie Overton smacked 93 from 92 balls, Ben Foakes made 91, Sam Curran 78, Colin de Grandhomme 66 and Jordan Clark 54 not out for the dominant visitors, for whom last man Dan Worrall added an unbeaten 44. After Ricardo Vasconcelos and Will Young scored centuries on the first day, Luke Procter added another – an unbeaten 100 from 199 balls – supported by Josh Cobb’s 66. The opener’s third career double century underpinned his side’s mammoth total of 566 for nine declared before Yorkshire closed on 53 for two, leaving them trailing by 513 runs.
