DUBLIN UNIVERSITY VS NORTH LEINSTER DISTRICT CUP (MAY 18TH)

The second game of the Siggins Cup takes place this Monday evening, as Dublin University face off against North Leinster in a tie that pits the two main protagonists from last season against each other.

Dublin University kicked off the competition on Wednesday with a solid victory against South Leinster, underpinned by an excellent 84 from opening batsman Rory Betley. And he'll be joined once again in a strong batting unit that features Macdara Cosgrave, Yash Bala and Ryan Smith.

Skipper Mikey O'Reilly leads the bowlers, alongside fellow all-rounders Donncha Tucker and Don Retty, whilst Joe McCarthy provides his leg-breaks. Gloveman Olly Mollins rounds out the side.

North Leinster meanwhile kick off their season with a strong line-up, featuring several members of last year's winning squad.

They are captained by Malahide batsman Adam Doyle, who will feature in the top order alongside Clontarf opener Séamus Lynch. Matthew Langan will assume duties behind the stumps, with Muzamil Sherzad and Karthik Subbiah will both also feature in the top 6.

Matthew Weldon is one of four players from The Hills, and he's likely to open the bowling alongside clubmate Killian McGrane. North County pair Brandon Morris and Johan George are the frontline spinners in the side.
