Opening game of the season. Lancs newbie Tom Smith started out well with 3 wickets, including Crawley.

Hampshire 1st Innings
194 all out (68.0 overs)
Lancashire 1st Innings
66 for 3 (27.1 overs)
 
Should challenge for the championship if the weather holds up in Manchester - just one pro signed this year (Brad Hodge)...must have a lot of faith in the youngsters. I think we just needed a world class spinner in the overseas department.

The youngsters barely played a First XI game last season. Presumably it'll change this year.

Would be a good idea to sign another world class spinner.

I can't believe they haven't.
