Yorkshire head coach Anthony McGrath has confirmed that England batters Harry Brook and Joe Root should both be available to play in the County Championship match against Warwickshire next month.
The White Rose claimed their first win since being promoted back to Division One with a comprehensive victory over Worcestershire at Headingley on Sunday.
They now travel to Durham on Friday before welcoming the Edgbaston side on 2 May.
"As it stands, I think they're only going to be available for one game, which is the Warwickshire game," McGrath told the club website., external
"Joe's still away on holiday, Harry was in last week. I believe that's all they're going to play. I don't think that's going to change, but as we know it could do.
"That was a conversation with [England's lead selector] Luke Wright I had.
"They're centrally contracted, that's the directive from ECB.
"Any time we have them is a bonus.
"You know how passionate both Harry and Joe are to play, and it will be brilliant to have them. Hopefully they can contribute like the boys have done this week."
Brook, 26, who was named England's white-ball captain last week, scored 388 runs in five County Championship games last season, while 34-year-old Root hit 442 in the same number of appearances.
