Yorkshire's array of international stars were humbled by Lancashire at Old Trafford in a thrilling exhibition of T20 cricket last Friday but will be pleased by the way they turned the tables on their close rivals in the County Championship this week.

The likes of Adam Lyth and skipper Steven Patterson enjoyed good games and the former played a key role in sparking Yorkshire's attempt at chasing down Lancashire's mammoth 176 in 14 overs in the aforementioned T20 Blast clash.

Lyth plundered 60 from only 26 balls while his hard-fought 70 in the subsequent four-day victory confirms he remains in good form.

Expect him to play a lead role again, especially in the form of Yorkshire's aggressor, but that might leave the door open for New Zealand captain Kane Williamson to take top honours in the top Yorkshire runscorer market.

for top Yorkshire batting honours.

given the unhelpful preparation Yorkshire have had to make do with.

Another sub-plot to this game is the potential return to Headingley of Will Rhodes.

The former England U19 captain left Yorkshire at the end of last season having fallen out of favour but has started his Warwickshire career in impressive fashion.

Rhodes hit a sublime 118 in the County Championship game at Lord's this week and although not selected in the last few rounds of this competition, the Stamford Bridge left-hander has demonstrated his short-form skills for Warwickshire 2's in the last few weeks.

The 23-year-old has made scores of 43, 66 and 52 not out in their most recent T20 matches and will be desperate to do well if getting the nod in front of a packed Headingley crowd on Friday night.
