Devon are beaten by Cornwall

Devon won the Western Division title last year in their first season back in the top flight following promotion.

After two successive defeats – by Berkshire and now Cornwall – Devon are rock bottom of the five-team table with two games left to avoid dropping back down.

If Devon lose heavily to second-bottom Cheshire in their next game, it could be curtains before they play Oxfordshire at Banbury in their final game.

Cornwall went into the final day of the National Counties Championship clash on none for one overnight and facing a target of 285 to win.
