Rob O'Brien is quickly developing into the mainstay of the Railway Union side,and the Irish youth international was yet again in the runs as he hit an unbeaten 59 to ensure they chased down a modest Civil Service target of 122. Vijay Adhikari had hit a 28-ball 44 in the CS total of 121 that never looked enough.

Phoenix made it four wins in a row against Merrion as they continue to benefit from the mental scars inflicted in the Irish Senior Cup win last year. Daniel Forkin's unbeaten 54 was the best of Merrion's 144 for seven - three wickets for James Maginnis and two for Tom Malone. Shane Getkate's 47 and 20's from Tyrone Kane, Eknoor Singh and Levon Shields ensured the win with two balls to spare.

Oliver Horlock's 67 ensured The Hills had little trouble chasing down Adamstown's modest 120 total, securing an 8-wicket win.

Clontarf have been one of the form teams in Leinster this season and their winning streak continued as they chased 142 to beat Rush with five overs to spare. Finn McGee's 50 was the best of a Rush total of 141 with three wickets for Cillian McDonnell and two apiece for Patrick Xie, David Delany and Mitchell Thompson. Eoghan Delany's 14-ball 33 got the Castle Avenue side off to a flier, and although Conor Butterly took three wickets, Clontarf eased home to win by four wickets.

Jamie Grassi hit 11 sixes and five fours in an unbeaten 115 that helped North County to a 56-run win at North Kildare. Grassi added 92 for the second wicket with Brian Dunphy (48) and 74 for the third wicket with Hunter Kindley (24) in a total of 216 for three. Brandon Morris then took four wickets as The Maws side were kept to 160 for eight.

Malahide travelled to Balbriggan and effectively had the game won in the first ten overs as the home side slumped to 51 for seven. Farooq Nasr (30) and Andrew Darroch (22) staged a mini-recovery, but 117 was never likely to trouble the visitors. It's been great to see Davy O'Halloran back in action and among the wickets as he picked up three, while there were two apiece for Jeremy Martins, Andrew Sheridan and Robbie Foulkes. The chase was all about Foukes - one of the stars of the first half of the Leinster season - who hit 11 fours and a maximum in a 51-ball 72, dominating a match-defining third wicket stand of 71 with Jeremy Martins (15) as the six wicket win was sealed in the 17th over.

A third wicket stand of 58 between Macdara Cosgrave and Ryan Smith was the catalyst for Dublin University's 37-run win at Terenure. Cosgrave hit eight fours in a top score of 43, while Smith's 35 included six boundaries as they made 142 for eight - the home side giving ten bowlers a go. David Vincent and Jamie Forbes each took two wickets in the chase that saw Terenure never threaten the target, ending on 105 for six with Sagar Joshi making 42 and Donal Lynch 25.

Leinster ran out convincing 90-run winners against a Pembroke side that were missing the majority of their international players. Monil Patel's 25-ball 42 (3 fours, 3 sixes) was the best of their 171 for six. That proved more than enough as the Sydney Parade side were bundled out for 81, with three wickets apiece for Ben Mitchell and Bilal Azhar.
