2. Toms then got frustrated on 48 having played seven dot balls from Stephenson who then bowled him on the eight trying to work the ball through mid wicket. This with Manning had been a splendid partnership that had set up a comfortable position with plenty of batting still to come. Only one more was needed in the shape of Larcombe who proceeded to score at a run a ball for 41. Manning passed his second successive fifty and then watched his A division friend win the match being undefeated on 64. This was a second major innings from this loyal clubman, there are few more popular players in the league and he deservedly picked up the man of the match award under some pressure from Gary Larcombe.

A most satisfactory conclusion to one of the most successful seasons in Devon youth history. Our thanks to the Devon League and Bovey Tracey Cricket Club for an excellent days play and brilliant catering.
