    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!

    Cracking Irish Senior Cup Final in the Mardyke this afternoon. Phoenix (211 a/o) beat Merrion (210 a/o) by 1 run! Merrion needed 2 runs to win from the last 2 balls, but their no. 11 was out giving Phoenix a dramatic win by the narrowest of margins.

    Looking at the scorecard, Merrion's 18 wides and 1 no ball were the difference between winning and losing. (Phoenix bowled only 5 wides).

    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.

    Today is National Cup Final day at the Mardyke, and, unlike yesterday's nailbiter, it looks as though the Russians are cruising to an easy win against Strabane.

    Latest score: Rush 281/8, Strabane 112/7.

    Interestingly, veteran John "Boy" Mooney is playing for Strabane; that's a very long way from Fingal where he started his career with Balrothery, more than thirty years ago.

    Sri Lanka always in control, win at ease. Ireland win series 2-1.
