Gloucestershire opener Chris Dent hit six boundaries before losing his wicket on day one in Bristol LV= County Championship Division Two, Seat Unique Stadium, Bristol (day one) Gloucestershire 108-3: Dent 29, Price 26*; Scriven 1-10 Leicestershire: Yet to bat Gloucestershire 0 pts, Leicestershire 1 pt Match scorecard Only 36 overs were possible on the opening day of the County Championship game between Gloucestershire and Leicestershire at Bristol. Heavily overcast skies greeted the players and there was always the threat of a downpour until a curtailed final session. Rain caused two long stoppages after Gloucestershire had won the toss and elected to bat. By the close, they had posted 108-3, Ollie Price unbeaten on 26. Openers Chris Dent (29) and Ben Charlesworth (21) failed to cash in on positive starts as Chris Wright, Tom Scriven and Callum Parkinson picked up wickets late on. What little play was possible before lunch meant 11.2 overs were bowled and the home side progressed with few alarms to 38-0. Dent took a heavy toll on Leicestershire's teenage left-arm seamer Josh Hull, who was withdrawn from the attack having bowled the opening two overs from the Pavilion End at a cost of 22 runs. Five times Dent rocked on to the back foot to dispatch short-of-a-length deliveries from Hull through the off side for boundaries. Wright bowled a much tighter line and length from the Ashley Down Road End, but lacked penetration on a typically docile Bristol pitch. Scriven was introd...
