Hampshire’s youngsters failed in their bid to reach the ECB Under-17 50-over County Cup quarter-finals after a four-wicket defeat by Devon at Seaton.
They thrived on a sound opening partnership between Cole Campbell pictured above (67) and Josh Wood (49) but after George Metzger (33) had chipped in they fell away to 206-7.
Joe Vaughan’s unbeaten 49, aided by Sony Reynolds (24), took Hampshire on to 265-7 – a total Devon chased down with five balls to spare. Wood (3-38) was the most successful of the nine bowlers Hampshire used.
