Hampshire 133 for 2 (Lanning 64, Threlkeld 45) beat Lancashire Thunder 130 for 7 (Bouchier 74*) by eight wickets
Hampshire got off to a brilliant start with former Lancashire player Naomi Dattani bowling Eve Jones with the third ball of the opening over before skipper Adams accounted for Tilly Kesteven the same way with her first ball to leave the hosts 23 for 2.
In the fifth over of the game the heavens opened forcing the players off the field for just over an hour with Dattani striking with the first ball after the resumption as Grace Johnson was bowled for two.
Lancashire needed a partnership and they got one between captain Ellie Threlkeld and the in-form Lanning who counter-attacked in style with repeated sweeps and some energetic running.
Lanning brought her half-century up off 41 balls with five boundaries and one towering six before she top-edged a Bex Tyson delivery to wicketkeeper Rhianna Southby, ending the partnership on 80.
Bouchier took the game to Lancashire, hitting Kate Cross’ first over for 10 but Grace Potts struck with her first ball to remove Ella McCaughan bowled without scoring.
Cross had Adams dropped in the deep by Johnson with the skipper on five and it proved costly as the second-wicket pair began compiling the partnership that would win the game.
Bouchier’s half-century came off 37 balls with one six and six fours as the visitors eased their way to the target in the 16th over against a demoralised looking Lancashire with the winning runs coming soon after Adams was run out for 48.
