Dan Worrall marked his return from a long-standing calf injury lay-off by reminding Surrey supporters of just what they have been missing during the opening weeks of the County Championship season.
Worrall took 5 for 61 from 20 overs on the opening day of Surrey's crunch away fixture against Nottinghamshire, the county who pipped them to last summer's Championship title by beating Rory Burns' team by 20 runs in a four-day thriller at the Kia Oval in what was effectively a winner-takes-all match last September.
The 34-year-old Worrall finished with the superb comeback figures of 6 for 73 as Nottinghamshire moved on to 415 all out on the second morning, with Surrey being held up by a last wicket stand of 74 between Olly Stone and Josh Tongue. Dom Sibley's 77 then anchored Surrey's reply.
