Patel receives a standing ovation

Lunch: Yorkshire 46 for 0 (12 overs) Rudolph 28 Sayers 14.

Warwickshire 482 all out.

Trott (161 not out) and Patel (120) added 233 in 47 overs. Their partnership eclipsed Warwickshire's previous ninth-wicket record, the 154 by George Stephens and Alf Croom against Derbyshire at Edgbaston in 1925, was the fourth-highest for the ninth-wicket in the county championship and the ninth-highest in all first-class cricket. It fell only 50 short of the highest ever in the first-class game, the 283, ironically against Warwickshire, (you wouldn't make it up) by Arnold Warren and John Chapman at Blackwell in 1910.

That stand by Warren and Blackwell was a truly worthy all-time record made against the great Frank Foster and Frank Field who, a year later, were to bowl the Bears to their first county championship triumph.

Patel received a standing ovation. It is the first debut century by a Warwickshire player since Kumar Sangakkara's brilliant innings against Durham at Edgbaston in 2007.

Yorkshire 164 ahead with two sessions to go. Yet another draw, surely.
