| Match scorecard |
Former Yorkshire opening partners Adam Lyth and Alex Lees shone for their respective sides on day two at Scarborough as Durham responded in kind to the home side’s first-innings 340 all out.
Lyth made his way from 75 not out overnight to 111 off 188 balls before fellow left-hander Lees dominated after tea with 65 not out in Durham’s reply of 106-1 from 33 overs.
The pair won two Championship titles together for Yorkshire in 2014 and 2015 before Lees fell out of form and left his home county for Durham to reignite his career in 2018.
He has since played Test cricket for England and is currently on a run of four hundreds in his last five Championship innings. Number five could follow on day…
