Irish Cricket 2024

117/6. tucker gone. need 41 to win

good decision not to take lunch with 11 required

A great win. Fantastic play from the 3 batsmen today. Not just to win but in the end comfortably enough

great job. Only annoying aspect was the camera work at the end not picking up the winning shot in realtime… focusing on the non striker McBrine 🫤 for some reason.

Watched the end of it. I didn't think it was over last night but wouldn't have made them favourites, and definitely didn't think it'd be that comfortable in the end. Just need a win in malahide now, even just a match in malahide would be nice 🫤

like dublin buses! We wait 7 years haha

Only Australia, England and Afghanistan got to their second test win in a lower amount of matches than Ireland

Irish girls beaten by Sri Lanka in Pembroke. A fairly convincing defeat unfortunately…

Ireland 145/6 from their 20. Chased down in 16.4 overs. Sri Lankans only lost 3 wickets over the course of their chase. Looked from the bits I saw that like the men’s team it was a case of just not finding enough wickets but one gimmie simple catch was put down, another more difficult one put down too and just the challenge of beating Sri Lanka would be hard enough but when you don’t take those chances it really doesn’t make your job any easier.

Good to see some movement on the new cricket ground. 4k capacity isn't great but it'll be good to have a national ground as such.

Another great result for the Ireland women's team, beating Sri Lanka in the first ODI. Fantastic performance by Orla Prendergast, 122 n/o with the bat and 3 wickets too!

Ireland women's team put in another decent batting performance, 255/5 in the second ODI, SL 127 with 23 overs remaining, 8 wickets in hand. SL probably favourites at this stage...

Yep. They won despite the absence of their high scoring captain (Gaby Lewis), as well as Orla Prendergast being out cheaply. Good to see.

Tough start for Women's Team in 3rd ODI v SL, 10/3 after 5.

good news last I heard he was still waiting on the transplant… that’s great news….

Had a very decent career. His last cricket match according to the resource im looking at was a year ago to the day..

Internationally I’m seeing he played 88 limited overs games for us. Pretty committed. Probably won’t see him in an Irish shirt again as he is almost 38 and this will take some recovery but good luck to him..

Dreadful performance with the bat, embarrassing really. 45 all out, Raymond-Hoey hit 22, extras were 5 so the rest of the team scored 18 between them. England are an excellent side but this is shocking by Ireland..

I see balbirne has been dropped for Ireland's 3 t20s v SA later in the month

Proving to be a bit of a struggle for Ireland. 38/4 off 7 overs is response to 177 for England. Scoring at just over 5 an over need to double that realistically.

Better performance so far by Ireland women in the final T20. 70/1 off 9, 100 needed off 11, probably unlikely but hopefully they can at least go close.

Fantastic win with a very nervy last over. Prendergast has batted brilliantly both today and yesterday.

Ireland batting after losing the toss to SA in the t20i. Good start, 21/0 in the second over. Stirling and rosd Adair opening.

Stirling was out a couple of balls later. Tector and camper going well and Ireland 63/2 after 6 overs

Campher and Rock going well, only 3 down, hopefully get up to a par score….170 - 180 would be handy

SA need 75 off 60 with 10 wickets in hand...a walk in the park for them unfortunately.
