Dorset lost their final group match by 26 runs (Duckworth/Lewis) to Devon, but will host Wiltshire in the quarter-finals of the MCCA Trophy at North Perrott, near Crewkerne, on Sunday June 12.
A protracted ran-affected affair, during which the Bashley (Rydal) ground-staff worked heroics to get the ground fit, saw Devon post 154-6, with hosts spinner Sam Thomson taking 3-44. Lymington's Lewis McManus (31) led a frantic 64-run start which Ryan Scott (21) and Michael Porter (28 not out) enhanced, but Dorset fell short at 144-4.
