HAMPSHIRE head coach Craig White has already warned his players that Yorkshire will be ‘like wounded animals’ when they play the return game at The Ageas Bowl later this month.

The former Yorkshire and England all rounder said: “Every win’s special, but this one perhaps a little more so.

“You don’t win many games being 58-5 in the first innings. To claw it back and come out of that situation with a victory is pretty special, so I’m proud of the lads.

“The character the lads showed fighting back with the ball, and to bowl them out for 180, was a great effort and gave us a real chance of winning.

"The fight today, also. Everyone was so determined. It wasn’t an easy pitch. There was a little bit in it. So the way the boys worked hard and got stuck in was outstanding. It was a real team effort.

“This is the first game of many. We’ve had a great start, but we know in two weeks when Yorkshire come down to Hampshire, they will be like wounded animals. They will come at us hard. So we need to be ready.”

Yorkshire coach Andrew Gale said: "It was a good game of cricket for the neutral, wasn't it?

"It's disappointing to be on the wrong end of it because I felt we had opportunities to win the game.

"We could have put the game to bed on Saturday afternoon. I didn't think it was a 180-odd all out pitch.

"We could have applied ourselves a little bit better. If we'd have got 220-250 and they'd have been chasing 400, it's a different game.

"Also, a couple of catches went down, and it's a different game at 20-2.

"Fair play to Hampshire, it was a good chase. Not many teams come here and chase over 300 in the fourth innings."
