County Championship: Day one of Hampshire-Essex rained off

Hampshire’s Utilita Bowl saw mizzle, drizzle and outright rain, but no cricket as no play was possible on day one of their County Championship clash with Essex.

The covers remained untouched, other than by water, all day until the umpires abandoned play at 15:40 BST.

Both sides would have been left frustrated by the lack of action with eyes on chasing Surrey down at the top of the table.

More rain is forecast overnight but there is more hope of play on Friday.
