Anthony McGrath spelled it out in the clearest of terms yesterday that his troubled winter has had no adverse affect on his batting form.
On the first day of the two-day friendly against Derbyshire at Headingley Carnegie, McGrath put all his best shots on display while calmly striking an unbeaten 86 from 92 balls with 17 fours and a six before retiring.
McGrath added an untroubled 157 for the third wicket with opener, Craig White, who also retired at the tea interval with an unblemished 92 off 177 deliveries with 13 boundaries.
In the evening session, Gerard Brophy got to 39 and Adil Rashid to 25 before they retired and Simon Guy hit an unbeaten 28.
Yorkshire closed on 392-4 off their 96 overs and it was Derbyshire's turn at the crease today.
