Adam Lyth and Dimuth Karunaratne shared an opening partnership of 73 as Yorkshire seized control on Day 2. The pair quickly built on their side’s first-innings advantage of 92 at Wantage Road, having bowled Northamptonshire out for 204 as rookie all-rounder Matthew Revis and off-spinner Dom Bess shone with the ball. Revis took three for 45, his best first-class performance, while Bess tied up one end for most of the afternoon, returning miserly figures of two for 31 from 22 overs. Emilio Gay produced some classy shots to top-score with 65, but Northamptonshire were unable to contain their opponents in the final session, with Lyth (41 not out) extending the White Rose lead to 177 as they closed on 85 for one.
