The first wicketfell with the score on 22 (after 18 overs), when the nagging Mascarenhasbroke through Robinson’s defence, followed soon after when Tremlett hadthe dangerous Aussie Brad Hodge caught behind for 1. Udal trappedStevens lbw, but despite 11 runs coming off the last over of the morningsession, Hampshire held the upper hand, and this was to be doublyincreased within a space of 21 balls after the break.Warne and Mascarenhas each took a brace of wickets as Leicestershireslumped to 70-7, a loss of 4 wickets for 1 run, including that ofMaunders who had withstood the force from the start. It was nearly anhour before Hampshire took another wicket, when Tremlett picked up hissecond of the day. Leicestershire were soon all out for a paltry 139.Derek Kenway and Michael Brown took the score to 23-0 after 6 overs andtea, and moved on afterwards to 48 before Kenway who had struck fourfours, edged deFreitas to the wicket keeper. Will Kendall joined Brownplaying sensibly to a ball that was still swinging, but they surviveduntil rain forced off the players with 7 overs still to go in the day.Hampshire will be looking to press home their advantage on Thursday,especially with the weather being a little unkind.
