Michael Vaughan endured an unhappy return to the County Championship thanks to Billy Taylor.

All the hype before this match was about Vaughan and his first championship appearance for more than a year, as he prepared to face Shane Warne for the first time since last year's Ashes series.

But the England captain was dismissed in the fourth over of the match for one, having already suffered two scares as he became Taylor's ninth victim of the season.

Vaughan survived a run out when he scampered his only run off James Bruce to Dominic Thornely at mid-off.

And he had his off and middle stumps splayed by a Taylor no-ball, before nicking to Pothas three balls later.

Vaughan did not have a chance to demonstrate the stroke play he showed against Scotland in the C&G Trophy two days earlier, as Hampshire's seam attack responded to the loss of the toss with a disciplined start.

Taylor had bowled well without reward in the C & G Trophy demolition of Gloucestershire on Bank Holiday Monday and he continued in the same vein at Headingley.

The 28-year-old also claimed the scalp of Matthew Wood in his fourth over, trapping Vaughan's opening partner lbw with a full-length ball.

The Southampton-born seamer is one of only three players in this Hampshire side to play in the county's last match at Headingley (Dimitri Mascarenhas and Nic Pothas are the others) a memorable 119-run under Will Kendall in 2004.

Shane Warne was away with Australia on that occasion and a healthy Headingley crowd missed out on the chance to see Hampshire's captain bowl at Yorkshire's two in-form batsmen, as well as Vaughan, thanks to an excellent start from his seamers.

Anthony McGrath and Darren Lehmann have been the mainstays of Yorkshire's batting this season but both had been dismissed by the time Warne came on to bowl in the 28th over.

McGrath was brilliantly caught by Pothas for a duck in the over that followed Vaughan's exit.

Pothas held on to a one-handed catch in front of first slip, in a carbon copy of James Bruce's dismissal of Gloucestershire's Hamish Marshall on Sunday.

Lehmann continued his spectacular start to the season against Hampshire.

The Australian thumped 37 from 39 balls (six fours) and was furious with Michael Lumb when he was run out in the 21st over.

The pair had put on 42 in 13 overs when Lumb played Richard Logan to mid-wicket and made the mistake of taking on Michael Carberry.

Lehmann has never been the quickest of runners and Carberry's direct hit left him stranded.

The South Australian glared back at Lumb with a mixture of disbelief and fury before flinging his bat and helmet against the advertising boards as he returned to the pavilion.

Yorkshire lunched on 96-4 and Lumb (67 from 178 balls) became the first victim of the afternoon session when he nicked Dominic Thornely to a diving Warne at slip.

Warne's best Headingley figures in his four-first class appearances (one championship match and three Tests) here were the 2-81 he took in his second game for Hampshire six years ago.

He finished the first day of this match with 2-64.

Greg Lamb held on to a juggled catch at first slip to give him the vital wicket of Yorkshire captain Craig White (57), and Warne's wrong 'un found Gerard Brophy's inside edge for a bat-pad catch that Jimmy Adams snaffled at short leg.

When the recalled Richard Logan found Richard Dawson's outside edge in the first over after tea, Yorkshire were 205-8.

But a record ninth-wicket stand for Yorkshire against Hampshire took the gloss off the day for Warne and his men.

Tim Bresnan struck Warne for a six over mid-wicket in a career-best 79 not out (110 balls), while Jason Gillespie was dropped by Lamb at first slip off Taylor, shortly after Hampshire took the new ball, with 22 to his name.

Bresnan and Gillespie (33 not out from 91 balls) broke a 107-year-old record with their unbroken ninth-wicket stand of 118 as Yorkshire closed on 323-8.

They even persuaded Warne to give Carberry and Adams the chance to bowl their gentle seamers as Hampshire used no fewer than nine bowlers on a day that started well but ended in frustration for the visitors.
