Cornwall opener Chris Gibson also made a century but finished on the losing side as Somerset avenged their Showcase defeat at Taunton last season with a seven wickets win at Truro. 

Gibson’s 105 dominated Cornwall’s 255 for eight – only two other batters topped 20 – but Somerset eased home with more than 17 overs to spare thanks to half centuries from Steve Davies, Josh Thomas and James Hildreth. 

Dorset were undone by two of their homegrown players as Hampshire won by 62 runs at Wimborne. 

First Tom Prest top-scored with 87 as Hampshire made 274 for nine with slow left-armer Rob Pack impressing with four wickets. 

Half-centuries from Sam Young and Joe Eckland, who is on Hampshire’s Academy, kept Dorset in contention but Scott Currie, who has made 18 appearances for his native county, took five for 48 to snuff out their resistance.  

Gloucestershire’s James Bracey and Ben Wells also made centuries in a 218 runs win over Wiltshire at Cheltenham College. 

Gloucestershire Academy batter Ollie Meadows top-scored with 48 in Wiltshire’s 171. 

Colin Ingram ensured that there was no repeat of Glamorgan’s defeat by Wales NC at Cardiff last season as he made 110 which set up a 133 runs win. 

Tom Bevan continued his excellent form with 80 but Wales were dismissed for 198 with former Herefordshire seamer Jamie McIlroy taking three wickets for Glamorgan. 

Oxfordshire were beaten by five wickets by Sussex at Wormsley where half-centuries from skipper Jonny Cater and Ollie Clarke helped them to 205 all out. 

Former Oxfordshire batter Delray Rawlins saw Sussex home with more than 17 overs to spare with 82 from 66 balls.
