Bradford: Yorkshire beat Surrey by 3 wkis.

London, July 7. Scoring 199 runs in 101 minutes Yorkshire claimed a dramatic victory over Surrey with seven minutes of extra time to spare. It was one of the most wonderful finishes in which Yorkshira have been concerned for years. Flinging everything into a death or glory bid, they deservedly triumphed, and the game will live long in the memory of the large crowd, who were kept in a state of suspense until the winning run had been scored.
