Yorkshire End Warwickshire's Unbeaten Run with Six-Wicket Victory

Yorkshire's hopes of Metro Bank One Day Cup qualification received a significant boost as they ended Warwickshire's unbeaten run with a convincing six-wicket victory at Rugby School.

The triumph was orchestrated by George Hill's remarkable bowling performance, who claimed 6 for 28, the seventh-best List A figures for Yorkshire. His incisive spell restricted Warwickshire to a modest 242 for 9, with only Rob Yates (72) offering substantial resistance.

Yorkshire's chase was spearheaded by Harry Duke's vibrant 60 off 51 balls, providing a solid foundation for the pursuit. William Luxton then anchored the innings with his maiden senior hundred, while Matthew Revis contributed an unbeaten 51. Their unbroken partnership of 129 in 25 overs guided Yorkshire to victory with 33 balls to spare.

The win was particularly impressive considering the absence of Yorkshire's leading run-scorers, Shan Masood and James Wharton. It keeps their qualification hopes alive ahead of their final group game against Glamorgan.

Warwickshire, despite the setback, remain strongly positioned in the Group B table. However, the defeat was a missed opportunity to solidify their position. They will face Nottinghamshire in their final match, seeking to secure their place in the knockout stages.
