Warwickshire 258 for 7. Ambrose 33, Woakes 9.

Thomas, on 9, failed to control a cut at Jordan and Benning took a fine diving catch at point.

Eighteen-year-old Woakes, in at nine, promptly pulled his first ball faced in the championship to the mid-wicket boundary for four. He then cut his sixth, from Hussain, for four more.
Ambrose is, as Ambrose invariably does, batting with sense and skill.
