DAVID Wainwright completed his first century for Derbyshire and then tore through the Leicestershire top order with the ball on the third day of their LV County Championship match against Leicestershire at Grace Road.
Derbyshire were bowled out for 336 in the 16th over of the morning, with Wainwright having made 109 and Tom Taylor, on his first-class debut, 40. They added 87 together, which is only two runs short of the record for the ninth wicket for Derbyshire against Leicestershire.
The last four wickets put on 221 and that left Derbyshire ahead by 25.
Wainwright then took five wickets as Leicestershire struggled to 132-6 at tea, making him the first Derbyshire player since Jon Clare in 2008 to score a century and take a five-for in the same match.
Wainwright started the day on 83 and got going again with a smart cover drive for four. Taylor also settled nicely and, with nine needed in the 110th over to take another bonus point, Wainwright sealed it with a straight boundary with one ball to spare.
His hundred came up three overs later with a swept four off James Sykes. The century took him 188 balls, included 12 fours and was the third of his career.
His innings ended when Wainwright was caught at gully and Taylor was the last man out at the end of a very impressive first knock, sweeping to midwicket. Mark Footitt was 10 not out.
Wainwright's memorable day continued with his second ball in Leicestershire's eighth over as Greg Smith was bowled for 16 at 33-1 and he followed up in his next over by bowling Ned Eckersley for nought.
In the second over after lunch, Angus Robson was stumped by Gareth Cross off Wainwright for 13 before Ramnaresh Sarwan edged Footitt to first slip Wayne Madsen and fell for 18 at 74-5.
Wainwright had his fifth when Rob Taylor edged to slip Madsen for 19 at 113-6 but Niall O'Brien (37) and Ben Raine (8) stayed until tea.
