  3. The Celtic Cup and West Indies U15
18th August 2017 by Cricket Ireland

The Celtic Cup and West Indies U15

Ireland U17's levelled the Celtic Cup series with an emphatic 9-wicket win against Scotland at The Mardyke in the final game of the Celtic Cup series.

Josh Little's new-ball burst saw him claim four wickets and the visitors were unable to repair the damage inflicted by the Pembroke left-armer.

Only Scottish skipper Angus Guy (20) offered any resistance as they were bundled out for 99 in 31.1 overs - skipper Harry Tector (3-13) and leg-spinner Varun Chopra (2-21) also among the wickets.

Openers Marcus Poskitt and Andrew Vincent both made 40 as the Irish knocked off the modest total for the loss of just one wicket in 22.5 overs to earn a share of the trophy.

The U17's next play at the end of the month when they take on Hampshire in a three-match series in Belfast.

Meanwhile in England, Ireland Under 15's were also in action as they faced a very strong West Indies side.

The Irish fought back well from a poor start to post 186 in their 40 overs with Tim Tector top scoring with 42, while there were valuable contributions from Mitchell Thompson (26*), skipper SJ De Klerk (20), Archie Johnston and Kyle Magee who both made 18.

In reply the Irish battled bravely with Thompson, Hoey and Magee all among the wickets, but West Indies sealed a six-wicket win with two overs to spare.
