With Chris Silverwood set to return after injury and Darren Gough back in the Test squad, Yorkshire should be able to play their most successful trio of fast bowlers in the Championship match against Hampshire at Scarborough tomorrow.

Silverwood was Yorkshire's leading wicket-taker with 23 dismissals before standing down from the last two games with a sore heel, but he has since been overhauled by Steven Kirby and Ryan Sidebottom, who have 33 wickets apiece.

Kirby's phenomenal form has seen him claim 25 victims in the last three games, while Sidebottom has managed 15 over the same period and the inclusion of Silverwood should sharpen Yorkshire's cutting edge even further.

"Chris got in some useful overs in two Academy matches over the weekend and is looking very good," said Yorkshire coach Kevin Sharp.

Silverwood is also due to play today in a testimonial match for Academy coach Steve Oldham at Woodhouse Grange CC, near York.

Although both Kirby and Sidebottom bowled well at Riverside last week, Gough was well below his best and two wickets for 145 runs in the match did not help his side's cause.

Matthew Wood reverts to leading Yorkshire in the absence of Anthony McGrath, who has deservedly held on to his Test place, and either Tim Bresnan or left-hander Vic Craven will come in for the regular captain.

Craven is the specialist batsman who bowls useful medium-pacers while Bresnan is the specialist seamer whose batting is coming on rapidly. Last week he scored a century for the second team in their rain-hit draw with Lancashire at Stamford Bridge.

Yorkshire (v Hampshire) from: Wood, Fleming, Yuvraj Singh, Lumb, White, Craven, Guy, Gray, Bresnan, Silverwood, Sidebottom, Kirby.
