Derbyshire and Warwickshire shared an even first day in their County Championship match at Derby.

After being put in, the Bears slipped to 16-2 as 22-year-old seamer Sam Conners struck twice early on.

The impressive Conners (4-45) then removed Rob Yates for 37, but Sam Hain's 77 and 71 from Michael Burgess helped Warwickshire recover to 222-5.

But four wickets after tea saw the Bears close on 272-9, with Craig Miles unbeaten on 15.
