London, Aug. 9.
Yorkshire's temporary lead of the County Cricket table, having won their match yesterday, was wiped out today when Surrey beat Middlesex and so joined Yorkshire at the top with 220 points, Surrey having two games in hand.
Hampshire's win over Sussex kept them in third place with 158 and. Middlesex gathered four points for first innings lead against Surrey to remain fourth with 144,
Warwickshire whose match was abandoned after they had lost first innings point and Sussex beaten, are still equal ffth with 130 with Lancashire next at 128.
