The County Ground is a cricket ground in Exeter, Devon. The earliest recorded match on the ground was in 1889 between the Gentlemen of Devon and Somerset.[1] In 1902, Devon played their first Minor Counties Championship match on the ground, which was against Wiltshire. From 1902 to 1987, the ground played host to 148 Minor Counties Championship matches[2] and a single MCCA Knockout Trophy match between Devon and Oxfordshire in 1984.[3] The ground hosted its first Minor Counties match in 23 years in May 2010, when Devon played Wales Minor Counties.[4]
The ground has hosted two first-class matches, the first of which came in 1927, when the West played the touring New Zealanders. The second and final first-class match played on the ground came the following year, when a combined Minor Counties cricket team played the touring West Indians.[5]
The only List-A match played on the ground came in the 1980 Gillette Cup between Devon and Cornwall, which Devon won by 145 runs.[6]
In local domestic cricket, the County Ground is the home of Exeter Cricket Club who play in the Tolchards Drinks-sponsored Devon Cricket League. The club has played on the ground since 1902, when it became tenants of Devon CCC. [7] Previously the club's home ground was at Grâs Lawn.
The Devon Dumplings,[8] a wandering club with no fixed abode, has hired the County Ground on a regular basis since its formation in 1902.
