Surrey's crisis deepens ever further

Surrey's miserable start to the season is rapidly taking on crisis proportions, and not even the return of their Test stars could save them from humiliation at the hands of Warwickshire. Chasing a total of 241 for victory, Surrey slumped to 7 for 4, with Scott Newman, Mark Butcher, Graham Thorpe and Rikki Clarke all making ducks. Meanwhile at Taunton, Anthony McGrath put his winter of frustration behind him with a matchwinning 58, as Yorkshire crushed Somerset by 145 runs.
