He was well supported by Michael Carberry (62) and James Vince (52) as Hampshire ended the day on 366-6.Richardson also held onto the catch that got rid of Vince, who was looking for a third successive century, having already made tons against Loughborough MCCU and Leicestershire this season.Moeen Ali claimed three wickets with his off spin, but the visitors' best bowler was once again Alan Richardson.Vince also made a hundred in the final first-class match of last season against Division Two champions Derbyshire.As ever, Worcestershire's most used bowler had to wait until the 22nd over of the day, half an hour before the close, until he claimed his first wicket.Adams batted throughout the first day to finish on 150, registering his 17th first-class hundred just before tea.But figures of 1-45 from 25 overs were as tidy as ever from the old warhorse, who is now only 10 short of 200 first-class wickets of Worcestershire, in only his fourth season.
