This year's Mining Division Evening League Final will be held at Redruth Cricket Club on Sunday 7th September at 4pm when Perranporth will play Stithians.
Cornwall's cricketers ended their Minor Counties season on a high note, when they won, for the first time ever, on Herefordshire soil in six attempts. After taking a first innings lead of 73 Cornwall made 216 in their second innings with David Roberts making 56. Set 290 to win the home team were dismissed for 224 to give Cornwall victory by 65 runs. Devon's win at Berkshire means they take the Western title and go on to play Lincolnshire in the East v West play off. Cornwall, who finished only 11 points adrift of their cross Tamar rivals, are left to rue the bad weather that effectively denied them the title having had two games abandoned as draws. The County have one more game this year when they travel to Holland to play the C & G Trophy game next Thursday

Cornwall Under 21's chances of qualification for the National Q F's suffered a blow on Monday when Devon made it three successive wins with a 7 wicket success over Somerset at Seaton. Somerset 240-4 (Matt Wood 103, Arrul Suppiah 52); Devon 241-3 (Tom Wright 82, Arron Williams 49, Neil Bettis 37 no, Trevor Anning 32 no). Devon need only to beat Dorset on Thursday, who have been heavily defeated in their 3 games to date, to qualify for the national Quarter Finals. If they slip up and Cornwall beat Somerset the Group will be decided on run rate.
