The second day was another bright one and batting conditions remained good - however a record run chase would be necessary if the side were to come out as winners on first innings. Devon progression lasted just thirty-four balls as Tom Andrews departed caught behind. He had battled for fifty-two minutes for his sixteen. Devon's fortunes started to change on the fall of this wicket as Harry Ward and Joe Hagan-Burt took their side from 35-3 to 107-4 as they added seventy-two vital runs. They batted well together facing one hundred and five balls for six minutes under the hour. Harry Ward's innings was a clear indication of what he can offer the side as a top order batsman. Until his demise he looked in no difficulty and realistically three figures were on the horizon. This innings would have shown him that he should expand his own personal batting expectations. He reached a county best but was then the keepers third victim. His sixty-one had taken eighty-five minutes and he faced ninety-three balls hitting eleven to the boundary. The captain joined Hagan-Burt and batted the thirteen overs up to the lunch interval. Devon had now reached one hundred and thirty-two still needing another two hundred and sixty-one runs with six wickets in hand and potentially sixty-five overs remaining. It was likely to be an interesting two sessions. Hagan-Burt and Billy Rudolph batted through until tea adding another one hundred and eighty runs. Both batsmen reached their personal hundreds, Hagan-Burt in the eighty-first and Rudolph in the eighty-third and last before tea. They had batted beautifully complementing each other superbly and their stand of two hundred and five had taken them past the previous best fourth wicket partnership and the highest ever under sixteen stand. This had been compiled in 1990 by Gosling and Muggleton and had been seven short of two hundred. The pair enjoyed tea in the knowledge that they still needed another eighty-two runs off at least twenty-seven overs - just over three an over. The pair set a new target for the sixteens in putting on two hundred and eighteen in one hundred and fifty-nine minutes off three hundred and thirty-one balls. Billy Rudolph was Reeds fourth catch off the fourteenth post tea delivery. His one hundred and three was another personal county best and had included twelve fours, the last took him up to three figures. He had faced one hundred and sixty-eight balls - he had most certainly lead from the front. Hagan-Burt contribution had also been immense but Devon were still not over the line and needed another sixty-nine runs. This was reduced by forty as Hagan-Burt and Phillips batted very sensibly but it was the Plymouth all-rounder who fell in the ninety-third over for another PB - one hundred and nineteen. This innings had taken over four hours, he had faced one hundred and sixty-eight balls and he scored one more four than his captain. His side still had a difficult thirty-two runs to secure a record breaking chase. Ben Phillips who has offered so much in various roles this summer departed ten runs later. It was left to Ed Bragg and Tom Williams to complete what was the biggest run chase in under 16 two day history. Both batted very sensibly and achieved their sides objective in seventeen minutes scoring the twenty-two runs off thirty-four balls. This was an exceptional all round performance with every member of the side making an important contribution.
