A sixth-wicket stand of 153 between Jacques Rudolph and Jonathan Bairstow guided Yorkshire to a four-wicket win over Warwickshire at Edgbaston.

The Tykes, who began the final day on 57-1, needing another 234 to win, looked to be heading for defeat when they were reduced to 123-5.

But the experienced Rudolph steadied the ship with Bairstow, who hit 81.

Although Neil Carter removed Bairstow with 15 still needed, Rudolph (69no) and Tim Bresnan saw Yorkshire home.

Rudolph hit 13 fours in his match-winning unbeaten 69
