  1. Postpublished at 6.3 overs

    Yorkshire v Lancashire 64-1

    Run out chance as Keaton Jennings just about gets in for a single.

    It hits the stumps and flies to the boundary. That'll be a rare five for Lancs.

    Yorkshire v Lancashire 57-1

    Here comes Adil Rashid.

    Yorkshire v Lancashire 57-1

    Ooof nearly a horror show as bowler Drakes bumps into non-striker Keaton Jennings as he runs for a quick single.

    Jennings knocks Steven Croft off his stride and there's suddenly a run out chance. But Dominic Drakes sportingly chooses to hold onto the ball and concede a single.

    Class that.

  4. Postpublished at 5.5 overs

    Yorkshire v Lancashire 56-1

    Brilliant over so far from Dominic Drakes. Just one from it as Steven Croft is marooned on strike.

    Can Yorkshire finish the power play off strongly?

  5. Postpublished at 5 overs

    Yorkshire v Lancashire 55-1

    Five overs gone.

    Keaton Jennings is on 24 from 15. Steven Croft has 20 from eight.

  6. 6 runs

    Yorkshire v Lancashire 52-1

    Back at Headingley, new bowler Matthew Revis isn't having much luck either.

    Steven Croft dispatches him for a maximum first ball. Then he repeats the trick next delivery, smashing into the floodlight pylon, to bring up Lancs' 50.

    This is some pitch. Expect a high total.

  7. Elsewhere...published at 18:48 British Summer Time 8 June 2022

    Durham are off to a shaky start against Birmingham Bears at Chester-le-Street.

    Graham Clark and Ollie Robinson are both out to leave the hosts 19-2 in the fifth over.

    In the South Group, leaders Surrey have also taken a couple of early wickets. Sussex Sharks are 37-2 after four overs with Tom Alsop going nicely on 24 off 11 balls.

    Yorkshire v Lancashire 40-1

    And another four from Jennings, a reverse-sweep no less, finishes the over.

    15 runs from it. Punished.

  9. Postpublished at 3.3 overs

    Yorkshire v Lancashire 34-1

    Time for some spin now as Dom Bess comes into the attack.

    But Keaton Jennings, the spin master, is on him straight away. Two fours from the first three deliveries.

  10. Postpublished at 3 overs

    Yorkshire v Lancashire 25-1

    A great over from the Yorkshire captain.

    Steven Croft, one not out, is the new man in for Lancashire by the way.

  11. Postpublished at 2.4 overs

    Yorkshire v Lancashire 25-1

    Lancashire are riding their luck now as Keaton Jennings edges David Willey for four.

    Time for a slip?

  12. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 2.1 overs

    Salt c Malan b Willey 10 (Yorkshire v Lancashire 20-1)

    Oh dear, that's a gift.

    Phil Salt, the dangerman, tries to loft David Willey over cover but doesn't get enough on it.

    In the end he simply loops the ball straight to Dawid Malan for a simple catch.

  13. Postpublished at 2 overs

    Yorkshire v Lancashire 20-0

    Keaton Jennings gets in on the boundary rush with a pull short to the fence.

    Dominic Drakes ends the over with a shorter one, hoping to counter, but Jennings reads it and slaps him away for four.

    Strong start from the batting team. Both batters have 10 apiece.

  14. Postpublished at 1.1 overs

    Yorkshire v Lancashire 11-0

    West Indies pace bowler Dominic Drakes enters the attack.

    His first ball gets some variable bounce and is cut by Jennings for a single.

  15. Postpublished at 1 over

    Yorkshire v Lancashire 10-0

    A demon David Willey yorker forces Phil Salt into a strong defence which ends up breaking his bat.

    A change of equipment leads to back-to-back fours though. A strong start from Lancashire.

  16. Postpublished at 0.2 overs

    Yorkshire v Lancashire 1-0

    First runs on the board as Phil Salt pokes a single down the leg side.

    David Willey is already getting some movement out of the new ball.

  17. Postpublished at 0.0 overs

    Yorkshire v Lancashire 0-0

    Phil Salt and Keaton Jennings open for Lancashire.

    Captain David Willey will bowl the first over.

    Corrie or Emmerdale? Leeds or Man Utd? Jodie Whittaker or Christopher Ecclestone?

    Two great counties meet in tonight's Roses match at Headingley.

    North Group leaders Lancashire have won six of the past 11 encounters. Yorkshire have only tasted victory twice in that stretch.

    But on derby day, form and history can go out the window. Yorkshire have won the toss and chosen to bowl first.
