Hampshire’s Division Two match with Lancashire was heavily interrupted by rain, with only 25 overs possible on the second day at Southampton.
Andrea Agathangelou (121) claimed a maiden Championship century as the visitors added 43 to their overnight total before being bowled out for 295.
The 23-year-old had replaced Simon Katich, who was taken to hospital after being struck on the head in the nets.
Hampshire reached 7-1 in reply, 288 behind, before play was abandoned.
A special day for Lancashire’s Andrea Agathangelou, who scored his maiden century for the Red Rose.
“The 23-year-old South African-born batting all-rounder only came into the side at the 11th hour due to a freak injury to Simon Katich.
“Katich was hit on the temple with a ball during net practice on day one and was taken to hospital but later given the all-clear and discharged.
“That opened the way for Agathangelou, who has been on the books at Old Trafford since 2010, and he’s certainly taken his chance.”
Agathangelou takes his nationality from his Cypriot father but looks to South Africa, his mother’s country, for his cricketing heritage, and has an impressive record in South African provincial cricket. In 24 first-class matches for North West, he has scored more than 1,800 runs at 39.15, including four centuries and a top score of 158.
