The opener followed former England left-hander Geoff Pullar, who achieved the feat in 1959 and 1960.

Jennings added this 280-ball 150 not out to last season's scores of 114 at Old Trafford and 132 here and was superbly supported by third-wicket partner and fellow centurion Steven Croft, who made 104.

The pair, dropped three times between them, shared 237 to lift Lancashire from 12-2 to a close-of-play 288-3 from 96 overs.

Following two Jordan Thompson wickets, Croft's eighth run took him to 9,000 first-class.
