Daniel Moriarty, who has played under-19 cricket for South Africa, joins on a Championship loan

Surrey have loaned left-arm spinner Daniel Moriarty to Yorkshire for an initial four-game spell, with the potential for an extended stay.

The 24-year-old begins his stint with the home Championship game against Gloucestershire on Sunday, and will be available for a further three matches.

Moriarty has 42 first-class wickets and his arrival has allowed Dom Bess to join Warwickshire for two weeks.

"Dan is a brilliant addition," director of cricket Darren Gough said.

"With Yorkshire's focus shortly turning to Championship cricket again, alongside the busy Blast schedule, it was important to add another addition to our bowling resources."

Yorkshire have won one and drawn three of their opening six Division Two games, while Surrey are top of Division One with five wins from seven.
