Sam Curran was the star of the show as Surrey wrapped up an innings victory over Yorkshire in just 45 minutes on the final day of their Specsavers County Championship match at the Kia Oval.

The 19-year-old took three of the last five Yorkshire wickets to fall in the space of six balls as he claimed the first ten-wicket match haul of his career.

Rikki Clarke picked up the other two wickets as Yorkshire were dismissed for 168 in their second innings to lose by an innings and 17 runs, their second defeat of the season. Their remaining five wickets fell in 5.2 overs.

Yorkshire’s hope of prolonged resistance had largely rested on Jonny Bairstow and Jack Leaning extending their sixth-wicket stand which stood at 40 overnight.

But they added just a further nine runs before Clarke struck in the fourth over of the day.

Bairstow fenced at a ball which bounced more than he expected and edged to wicketkeeper Ben Foakes, having added four runs to his overnight 25.

Curran then struck with successive balls. Tim Bresnan (1) inside edged a good ball and Steve Patterson lost his off stump to the first delivery of Curran’s next over.

Josh Shaw defended the hat-trick ball before being bowled by a similar delivery to the one which accounted for Bresnan that knocked back his stump.

The end came when Clarke pinned Leaning leg before for 28 as Surrey sealed their first win in this fixture since 2001.

Yorkshire coach Andrew Gale admitted: “All credit to Surrey, they outplayed us over the four days but on day one we missed four key chances which allowed them to get away when we could have bowled them out for 260.

“We have spoke at length about our batting. Preparation wasn’t great coming into the season because we’ve had too little match time but we have to make more runs.

"Adam Lyth showed what was possible in the second innings but the break for the Royal London One-Day Cup probably comes at a good time for us. It will free the lads up a bit and allow them to just go out and play and get themselves back into form.”
