Cornwall are boosted by the return of powerful Cornish All Blacks centre Lewis Paterson for today's Bill Beaumont Cup top flight clash away to Kent.
Paterson and clubmate Tom Hurdwell - hooker at Launceston - start on the bench as Cornwall coach Benji Thomas sticks with his winning starting XV at Medway RFC, Rochester.
Paterson was a stand-out performer for Cornwall in last month's Tamar Cup warm-up win over Devon at Plymouth.
Cornwall kicked off their 2013 county championship campaign with a 24-19 win over a strong Gloucestershire side at Cinderford.
Kent lost 50-26 at defending county champions Hertfordshire, who visit Camborne next Saturday.
Cornwall know a win in Kent will set up a mouth-watering Division One South showdown with Herts.
