Women's Super 20 Trophy
Dragons beat Scorchers by 7 wickets
Bready, 23 June.
Scorchers 175/6 (20 overs; G Lewis 71, S MacMahon 33, E Richardson 32; A Dalzell 2-25, E Marsh 2-44)
Dragons 176/3 (19 overs; A Hunter 64, O Prendergast 53, B Armstrong 23)
Orla Prendergast and Amy Hunter shared a century partnership (CricketEurope)
Defending champions the Dragons made it two wins from two as they chased down 176 to beat the Scorchers by seven wickets with an over to spare in the T20 Trophy at Bready. Gaby Lewis hit 12 fours and a six in a 43-ball 71, adding 91 in ten overs for the second wicket with Eimear Richardson (32). Their total of 175 for six was given a late impetus injection from Sophie MacMahon, who thumped four boundaries and two maximums in a 13-ball 33. Alana Dalzell and Ella Marsh each collected two wickets. Bella Armstrong (23) added 49 for the opening wicket with the prolific Amy Hunter, but it was the second wicket partnership of 102 in ten overs between the Belfast 19-year-old and fellow international Orla Prendergast that was the match-defining one. Hunter top-scored with a 44-ball 64 that included nine boundaries - five of them consecutively off Louise Little in an over that changed the complexion of the game. Prendergast also hit nine fours in a 34-ball 53, before both fell in quick succession. 26 were needed off 21 balls when Abbi Harrison (12*) was joined by Arlene Kelly (10*), with the pair ensuring victory with six balls to spare.

Typhoons 128-4 (15 overs; L Delany 57*, L Paul 31; A Dalzell 2-18)
Amy Hunter and Abbi Harrison shared an unbroken third wicket stand of 132 (CricketEurope)
Amy Hunter was in the runs yet again as the Dragons started their quest for a cup double with a ten-run win over the Typhoons at Bready in a contest reduced to 15 overs. The Belfast teenager hit 14 fours and a six in an unbeaten 94, sharing an unbroken third wicket stand of 132 with Waringstown's Abbi Harrison (31*), helping the hosts recover from 6 for 2 to post 138 for two. Alana Dalzell struck two early blows in the chase, and despite the best efforts of Laura Delany who made a 33-ball unbeaten 57 (6 fours, 2 sixes) they fell ten short. Leah Paul made a breezy 31 as she and Delany added 68 for the fourth wicket.
Women's Super 20 Trophy
Scorchers beat Typhoons by 8 wickets.
Bready, 22 June.
Typhoons 118-7 (20 overs; L Delany 30, A Squires 25*, Z Craig 22; S MacMahon 2-24, A Canning 2-26)
Scorchers 119-2 (12.2 overs; G Lewis 33, L Little 32, E Richardson 28*)
The Typhoons were blown away at Bready in the afternoon game in a one-sided contest. Laura Delany's 30 was the best of a modest 118 for seven, while Annabel Squires (25*) and Zara Craig (22) added 43 for the seventh wicket. Sophie MacMahon and Ava Canning were the pick of the bowlers with two wickets apiece. The chase was effectively over inside the powerplay as Gaby Lewis (33) and Louise Little (32) set about the bowlers. Eimear Richardson (28*) continued the assault as the eight wicket win was sealed with almost eight overs to spare.
North West Warriors lost to Northern Knights by 109 runs
The Mardyke, 19 June.
Northern Knights 175-5 (20 overs: C Carmichael 39*, B Calitz 35, N Rock 31, M Topping 31; G Hume 3-24)
North West Warriors 66 (12.4 overs: C Robertson 3-10, C McCullough 3-16, S Davey 2-14)
Carson McCullough and Cian Robertson (CricketEurope)
A late flurry of boundaries from Ben Calitz (35 off 12 - 2x4, 4x6) meant that the Warriors were set a challenging 9 an over for the win. The Warriors were never able to get into the game after the early departure of both openers Sam Topping and Andy Balbirnie and things got no better as wickets tumbled. The Knights with a whopping win and will start the long journey home earlier than expected.
Munster Reds lost to Leinster Lightning by 6 wickets
The Mardyke, 19 June.
Munster Reds 166-6 (20 overs: P le Roux 64*, S Doheny 35, K Hilton 25*; G Hoey 4-25)
Leinster Lightning 169-4 (15.5 overs: C de Freitas 70, T Tector 45, H Tector 24*; B Nabi 3-30)

Leinster Lightning 134/6 (15.4 overs: T Tector 58, G Hoey 20*;R Millar 3-23)
Defending champions Leinster Lightning welcomed back their six international players and they played a vital role in a bonus point four-wicket win over the North-West Warriors. Chasing 130, Tim Tector cleared the ropes five times in a rapid half century to get them off to a flying start. Eglinton leg-spinner Robbie Millar pegged them back with three wickets, but Gavin Hoey hit an eight-ball unbeaten 20 to secure the win. The series continues on Thursday when there’s an all-Ulster clash in the morning, followed by Munster against Leinster in the afternoon.
Munster Reds beat Northern Knights by 47 runs
The Mardyke, 18 June.
Munster Reds 215-7 (20 overs: S Doheny 150*, J McNally 40; C Carmichael 2-16)
Northern Knights 168 (15 overs: C Carmichael 55, M Topping 26, B Calitz 21; B White 5-41, J Manley 2-27)
Stephen Doheny scored 150 not out (CricketEurope)
STEPHEN Doheny and Ben White helped Munster Reds to a 47-run win over the Northern Knights on the second day of the T20 interprovincials in Cork. Doheny has been on the periphery of the Irish squad for the past few seasons and took that frustration out on the NCU attack with a record-breaking innings. He clubbed a record 16 sixes on his way to an unbeaten 150 from just 56 deliveries, also registering the fastest century and the highest individual score in an innings that will live long in the memory. Chasing 215, the Knights were actually ahead of the required rate thanks to a 19-ball 55 from Cade Carmichael, but Ben White’s five wicket haul was decisive in the Munster win.
Munster Reds lost to North West Warriors by 29 runs
The Mardyke, 17 June.
North West Warriors 191/7 (20 overs; S Topping 67, J Egan 47, S Macbeth 34, A Balbirnie 26; J McNally 3-33, J Manley 3-46)
Munster Reds 162 (18.4 overs; J McNally 64, B Nabi 28; R Millar 2-15, J Wilson 2-24)
Waringstown's Sam Topping top-scored with 67 (CricketEurope)
The Warriors got their T20 season up and running with a 29-run win over Munster at The Mardyke. Sam Topping top-scored with 67 from 39 balls (5 fours, 4 sixes) sharing stands of 61 with Andy Balbirnie (26) and Jake Egan (47). Scott Macbeth (34) was also in the runs as he and Egan added a further 55. The innings fell away slightly at the death in the search for quick runs, with John McNally and Josh Manley each taking three wickets as the innings ended on 191 for seven. The chase started poorly and with the Warriors taking some excellent catches, the hosts looked buried at 101 for 7. However, Clontarf left-hander McNally cleared the ropes four times in a 39-ball 64, adding 57 in four overs with Bakhtyar Nabi (28). Just as the unlikely chase seemed on, McNally became the second wicket for Jared Wilson, followed by Nabi's run out - the injured Mike Frost (hamstring) didn't bat, leaving the winning margin 29 runs.
Northern Knights beat Leinster Lightning by 8 wickets
The Mardyke, 17 June.
Leinster Lightning 153/7 (20 overs; A Taniwal 40, M Cosgrave 29, S Lynch 25; C Robertson 2-29)
Northern Knights 156/2 (12.4 overs; J McCollum 65*, M Topping 58*, C Carmichael 29; M Hollard 2-29)
Morgan Topping and James McCollum added 117 (CricketEurope)
The Northern Knights took full advantage of Leinster's selection woes as they thumped the defending champions by 8 wickets to seal a bonus point win. Batting first. Abidullah Taniwal's 20-ball 40 (5 fours, 2 sixes) was the best of a modest 153 for 7 on a quick scoring Mardyke ground. Macdara Cosgrave (29) and Seamus Lynch (25) also got starts, while Cian Robertson took two wickets. Cade Carmichael got the chase off to a quick start with 29 (5 fours, 1 six), before Balbriggan's Matt Hollard struck twice. The Waringstown duo of James McCollum and Morgan Topping then took the game away with a century stand in just 8 overs. McCollum top-scored with an unbeaten 36-ball 65 (5 fours, 4 sixes), while Topping cleared the ropes six times in a 24-ball unbeaten 58 as the win was sealed in just the 13th over.
