When the final day's play began, with Surrey needing 98 runs to avoid an Innings defeat with only three wickets left, Yorkshire seemed set for an carly, win..

But so splendid did the eighth Surrey pair, Stuart Surridge and Alan Brazier, face up to their fask that they took the partnership to 101 before Surridge was out.

Willie Watson is a good cricketer--a reliable defi-band batsman and a fine field. It is difficult to criticise hig inclusion in the Test side against India at the Oval, H& is picked at the expense of some all-rounder who can bowl. To my mind Brian.
