An unbeaten half-century from all-rounder Felix Organ helped Hampshire build a solid total against bottom club Gloucestershire on a shortened opening day of the 150th Cheltenham Festival.
Because of the heatwave, play was restricted to 72 overs. Organ made 93 not out, while fellow opener Ian Holland reached 48 before he was lbw to Zak Chappell as the visitors – just 15 points behind Surrey in the LV= Insurance County Championship table – reached 203 for two when stumps was called early.
