County Championship: Yorkshire's Dom Bess and Will Fraine save Tykes after collapsing in Hampshire
LV= County Championship Division One, North Marine Road, Scarborough (day one): Yorkshire 158-8 (54.2 overs): Bess 67, Fraine 53; Abbott 4-36, Abbas 3-25)Hampshire: Still to beatHampshire 2 pts , Yorkshire 0 ptsScorecard
After going at bat, the Tykes slipped to 33-6 in the first 21 overs before recovering later to reach the early close on 158-8 thanks to half-centuries of Will Fraine (53) and England spinner Dom Bess (67) in a seventh wicket of 116.
Hampshire's two foreign fashion designers, Kyle Abbott (4-36) and Muhammad Abbas (3-25), have shared seven wickets after Keith Barker struck in the first round.
On a day when no other Yorkshire player reached double figures, there was no game beyond tea - and the day was stripped of nearly 42 overs when umpires Peter Hartley and Neil Mallender abandoned play just before 5pm.
After Yorkshire captain Steve Patterson opted to strike in his return to the side after a week out with a hamstring injury, Barker set the tone for Hampshire by trapping George Hill Lbw for a golden duck after just five balls.
Pakistani international Abbas then benefited from two batters who misjudged the starting attempts, while 'Adam Lyth played before Jonny Tattersall was eliminated, with Tom Kohler-Cadmore LBW in between.
20-4 inside 14 overs got worse when South African Abbott added the wickets of Matthew Waite and Matthew Revis caught in the slips.
Given no heavy batting artillery for Yorkshire including Harry Brook due to England T20 duty added to the power of the Hampshire bowling attack, it was a surprise Patterson chose to hit.
