NCCA Report - Paul Bolton
Devon won Group Four after they bounced back from a 13 runs defeat in the opener against Cornwall at Werrington to dismiss their hosts for 87 in the second match and clinch a 76-run victory.
Cornwall’s victory in the first match, built on 45 from captain Paul Smith, briefly took them top of the group.
But Devon soon gained revenge as Seb Linnitt made a fluent 79 in their 163 for five and Ben Privett then took four for 25, including Alex Blake and John Moon in his first over, as Cornwall slipped to 25 for five. A sixth-wicket partnership of 45 between Elliot Hooper (23) and Billy Taylor (22) shored up the innings, but Cornwall fell well short of their target of 164.
Cornwall finished second in the group on superior run rate just ahead of Wiltshire, whose defeat in the opener against Herefordshire at Westbury denied them the chance to finish top of the group.
The Super-12s will take place on Sunday August 9 with venues and groups to be confirmed.
Staffordshire, Norfolk, Berkshire and Devon will host the Super 12s stage of the National Counties T20 competition after finishing top of their respective groups.
