Yorkshire lost three wickets on the first morning of their LV= County Championship clash with Somerset.

At lunch on day one they had reached 109-3 at Taunton.

This was slightly disappointing after they had raced to 56-0 having won the toss and elected to bat.

Joe Root was the first to go for 19, before Bradford-born Anthony McGrath fell cheaply on his return to the side following a back injury.

The 35-year-old was out for nine, leaving the Tykes 67-2, with Adam Lyth then becoming the third batsman to fall before the interval for 39.

Captain Andrew Gale, on 12 not out, and Jonathan Bairstow (25no) resumed for Yorkshire in the afternoon session.
