EXPLOSIVE CARLOW LIFT RUSSELL COURT TROPHY

An excellent all-round performance from Carlow’s bowling attack set them up for a comprehensive 7-wicket victory in today’s Ed Sports Russell Court Trophy Final.

Having won the toss, Carlow elected to bowl first and the visitors got off to an excellent start. Mohammad Younas and Akhtiar Dawoodzai bowling their opening spells and taking two wickets each. Reducing the home side to 5/4.

A brief fight back between Abhishek Semalty, 24, and Benjamin Dillon, 19, pulled the score back to 50/5, before Shadeem Khan took 3/7 to bowl Terenure out for just 62 inside 18 overs.

Carlow were able to bat fearlessly in the chase, and rapid fire 19s from Mohammed Ismail, and Haibat Dawoodzai pushed the side towards victory, whilst Fawad Ahmad made an unbeaten 17.

Carlow finished up 7 wicket winners inside 9 overs, and are crowned Ed Sports Russell Court Trophy champions for the 2023 season, the presentation was completed by CL President Pat Banahan.
