ENG B+H 1993 - Round 1: YORKSHIRE v NORTHAMPTONSHIRE
Headingley, 11 May 1993

NORTHAMPTONSHIRE WON BY 34 RUNS

Felton and Lamb put Northants into a strong position  on  a  slow
pitch,    adding   118  from  30  overs  for  the  third  wicket.
Yorkshire, however, recovered lost ground as White   bowled  very
accurately  and   7   wickets   fell  for  42  runs  in  the next
ten. Moxon and Richardson appeared to be winning   the  game   as
they   shared   a  partnership   of   104.  But  Lamb handled his
bowlers skilfully, and both batsmen were out to errors  of  judg-
ment  within  the   space   of  three   overs.   As  panic set in
Yorkshire in turn collapsed, their last eight  wickets  producing
just 63 runs. Richardson was awarded his  county cap before play-
ing for Yorkshire at all, a  break  with  ancient  tradition  but
perhaps only fair under the  circumstances:  The club had forbid-
den him to wear his familiar maroon sunhat.
