Keaton Jennings put behind his disappointment at missing out on England's Test tour to India by beginning his County Championship campaign with an unbeaten 85.

Lancashire ended the day on 233-4, 134 runs behind Hampshire's first-innings total of 367 on a placid pitch.

Jennings and Luke Wells, who needed just 65 balls to reach the 68th half-century of his career, gave Lancashire a solid foundation.

Wells' wicket ended an 87-run partnership, of which he had notched up 55 when he clipped Mohammad Abbas to Tom Prest at short midwicket.

Jennings was dropped at point on 36 by Nick Gubbins before slowly closing in on a 57th first-class half-century.

Josh Bohannon made 30 out of 38 with Jennings before chopping James Fuller onto his own stumps.

Jennings then teamed up with George Balderson in an 86-run stand.

But Balderson recklessly slogged to deep midwicket for 38 before Tom Bruce was brilliantly caught at first slip by Liam Dawson to give Ian Holland two wickets in two balls to turn the momentum.

George Bell narrowly avoided edging the hat-trick ball before surviving to the close with Jennings.

Earlier, Hampshire added 62 runs to their overnight score as they extended their first innings by an hour and a half, to pocket three batting points.

Dawson, who had gone to bed on 61, continued to tick along with Holland and Fuller in stands of 38 and 45.

Holland fell leg before to Will Williams before Fuller edged a drive off Wells to Jennings at first slip, while Dawson fell for 86 to a smart catch behind off Tom Bailey.

Nathan Lyon completed the innings when Kyle Abbott was caught at long on by Jennings - the Australian ending with 3-110 from 38.1 overs.
