Yorkshire remained stuck to the bottom of the table after Leicestershire's overseas pair Virender Sehwag and Brad Hodge gave them the run-a-round at Headingley.
Sehwag crashed 65 while Hodge bagged a century as they put on 126 for the second wicket. For Yorkshire, Yuvraj Singh did his best to show his worth as the overseas pro, and he didn't do badly with 50 from 46 balls - but it wasn't quite enough. David Masters and Philip DeFreitas, who both took 3 for 33, continued to chip away at the batting order and even though Tim Bresnan launched an onslaught of 61 off 51, it was too little too late. Yorkshire fell short by just 18 runs with the middle order once again failing to make their mark on a game which was there for the winning.
