Aimee Maguire's six-wicket haul led the Scorchers to a 65-run win against Typhoons in a low scoring match at Oak Hill. The 17 year-old international left-arm spinner from The Hills figures of 6-19 were the second best in the competition's history - bettered only by the Dragons Cara Murray's 7-34 last year. It was a family affair as older sister Jane also picked up 2 for 17, with teenager Alice Tector picking up the other two as the Typhoons were bundled out for 63 - Rebecca Stokell's 29 accounting for almost half the modest total. Earlier, Scorchers total of 128 owed much to Tector's 34 and 20 from Merrion left-hander Leah Paul. The wickets were shared around with two apiece for Lara McBride, Ava Canning and Freya Sargent.

AMY HUNTER scored an unbeaten 134 but it wasn’t enough to lead the Dragons to victory in their Super Series title shoot-out with the Scorchers at North County. Chasing 300, the Belfast teenager hit 16 fours and cleared the ropes three times in her 102-ball knock, but ran out of partners with her side 39 runs short. She and fellow Irish international Orla Prendergast added 98 for the third wicket and at 168 for two, and 236 for four, it seemed likely that the Dragons would be successful. However, two run-outs didn’t help their cause, while there were also four wickets for Niamh MacNulty as the last six wickets tumbled for just 25 runs. Earlier, Gaby Lewis had top-scored for the Scorchers, hitting 13 fours and four maximums in her 82-ball 102, sharing a third wicket stand of 136 with Leah Paul, who made 67. There were also runs too for Christine Coulter-Reilly (32) and Jane Maguire (23), while New Zealander Claudia Green was the pick of the bowlers, taking three for 32. Hunter’s 134 was the fourth highest individual score in the ten-year history of the Super Series, and her second century in the 16 that have been scored in that time.

Delayed start, match reduced to 37 overs.

At Bready, Dragons made it two wins out of two in the Super50 Series with a 33 runs (DLS) victory over the Scorchers. In-form international Orla Prendergast was the star of the game, with 77 from 68 balls in Dragons 209 for seven from 44 overs and then took two wickets for 10 runs in her four overs. The visitors were well behind of their revised target of 155 when rain ended the match after 31 overs. Alana Dalzell, on her home ground, shared a sixth wicket stand of 67 with Prendergast and finished 36 not out, with six fours. Fellow internationals Gaby Lewis and skipper Leah Paul were the only serious contributors with the bat for Scorchers on a day when Dalzell, Cara Murray and Kia McCartney all failed to pick up a wicket, but their accuracy ensured the Dragons’ total was never threatened.

Orla Prendergast's brilliant all-round effort ensured the Dragons began their double quest with a comfortable five wickets win against the Typhoons at North County. Prendergast's new-ball burst had the Typhoons in real strife at 45 for 5, and although they rallied somewhat to reach 133, it was never going to be enough. The Irish international then top-scored with an unbeaten 37 (4 fours), as the Dragons top five all got double figures, including 30 for Elise Noble. The Dragons meet the Scorchers in the next game in the series at Bready on Sunday.

Arlene Kelly took two wickets to help restrict their opponents to 146 for 7. Prendergast showed her power by hitting four sixes and fours in a brilliant unbeaten 60 from just 39 balls, sharing a match winning stand of 65 with Australian Tahlia Dunne (33) - getting the win with eight balls to spare.

The Typhoons had little trouble beating the Dragons in the afternoon game. Three wickets apiece for Laura Delany and Georgina Dempsey restricting the home side to 90 for 7 - 21 apiece for Louise Little and Tahlia Dunne. Robyn Searle then hit 8 fours and one maximum in her 51 from just 36 balls as the win was achieved in the 13th over.

The Scorchers recorded an 82-run win against the Typhoons in tough conditions at Oak Hill.

Alice Tector impressed with three wickets, while there were scalps too for Aimee Maguire (3-32) and Sophie MacMahon (2-34).

Gaby Lewis put in a Player of the Match performance to lead the Scorchers to a three-wicket win against the Dragons at Oak Hill. Batting first the Dragons were in early trouble at 22 for 4, but were rescued by a fifth wicket stand of 92 between Orla Prendergast (53) and Arlene Kelly (52) to get them up to 179. Alice Tector picked up three wickets, while there were two apiece for Irish internationals Sophie MacMahon and Jane Maguire. Alana Dalzell (2-26) struck two early blows in the chase, but Gaby Lewis and Leah Paul (44) steadied the ship with a third wicket stand of 102. Cara Murray and Arlene Kelly kept things interesting with two wickets each, and at 157 for 7 the door was open. However, Lewis stood firm, as her unbeaten 90 (9 fours, 1 six) sealed the 3-wicket win with six overs left.

A half century from Amy Hunter and a five-wicket haul by Cara Murray inspired the Dragons to a 21-run win over defending champions Typhoons in a rain-affected Super Series opener at Belmont. Irish international Hunter hit six boundaries in a top score of 69, adding 45 for the 3rd wicket with fellow international Orla Prendergast as the Dragons posted 184 for 9 - Alana Dalzell making an unbeaten 19 too. There were three wickets for Georgia Dempsey and Lara McBride, while Freya Sargent took two. Dalzell (2-16) removed openers Ava Canning and Sarah Forbes, but a third wicket stand of 44 between Joanna Loughran (29) and Laura Delany (23) looked to be steering the Typhoons to a winning position. The turning point was a stunning outfield catch by Prendergast to dismiss Irish captain Delany, the first of five wickets for leg-spinner Cara Murray (5-42).Typhoons captain Rebecca Stokell ploughed a lonely furrow hitting 5 fours and the game's only maximum in her 60 from 51 balls, but chopped on from Arlene Kelly (2-21) as the Typhoons were bowled out for 163 in 37 overs.
