00:003rd Women's One Day International, Kulasuria with the first delivery and it's a big appeal
00:17and it's a first ball duck for Sarah Forbes, Kulasuria strikes first ball Isabel Joyce
00:23what a welcome to the match and chipped straight back it's 2-2 Amy Hunter is out for a first
00:31ball duck this is an incredible start from Sri Lanka and Ireland have been at the crease
00:37for 2 balls, 2 wickets have fallen, getting hit, oh there's a bit of extra bounce, is
00:44that gone?
00:45Prendergast is gone so 3 wickets down, inside the opening 5 overs Kulasuria strikes again
00:53all of Prendergast caught behind, almost waiting to make sure that it gets passed, caught behind
01:00Christina Kulter-Reilly has nicked one, it's held onto by Sanjuani and Fernando gets in
01:06on the wickets, Ireland are 13 for 4 after 8 overs, short delivery again and this one
01:15is far more firmly played by Stokel, pulls this away, just forward of square, struck
01:24on the pad Aiden Siever raises the finger and Stokel is out, she stands in disbelief
01:30at the crease but Ireland are 28 for 5.
01:39Well you said they needed to try and take the game on and take it to Sri Lanka and that's
01:43lovely from Leopold, just clubs it away, that's a lovely shot from Arlene Kelly, hit
01:52with some intent and she picks up a boundary, she moves on to 15 from 35 and Ireland pass
01:59the 50 mark and that's a lovely looking stroke from Arlene Kelly, between the two fielders
02:12she picks up another boundary and one of these two to score big, Leopold's not going
02:18to score big because that one's taken the outside edge slightly quicker, outside off
02:23gets a bit of bounce and Leopold well looks to play it behind point, loses her wicket
02:28for it and Ireland's set batter number 5 goes for 19.
02:35Nothing else and that's going to be a catch in the covers, lovely work in the field and
02:44Atapatu chips in now, there's a big edge on that, beat slip, little run away, way to the
02:56boundary 4-4 and that's got to be close, the finger goes up from Arlene Kelly's innings
03:06has come to an end on 35 as Atapatu claims her second wicket, this one is Ireland's 8th
03:13in the innings, Ireland 82 for 8 now and this one very nicely played by Alice Tector, that'll
03:24race away to the boundary, she's gone, well she comes down the pitch one too many times
03:32and has beaten her and no mistake by Anushka Sanjuwani behind the stump, she's got three
03:37catches and is stumping now today, top edge from the sweep shot, it's going to land safe
03:46and two fielders giving chase and has it got the legs? It has got the legs and that'll
03:57be it for our sergeant, she's stuck around, she really dug in at the end, Chamare picks
04:02up her third and sergeant has to go for 16, Ireland all bowled out for 122 in the end,
04:11the captain Chamare Atapatu cleaning up the end as we said, well not a good looking batting
04:18line up from Ireland, Kelly the best of the lot 35 but really good news from the tail
04:26Tector, sergeant Maguire coming in at 9, 10, 11, 17, 16 and 10 from them, Amy Maguire the
04:32one not out at the end, top order, well they were in disarray early on as Koulisouria ran
04:40rampant, Sanjuwani was in on the action as well, four dismissals for her, three catches
04:46and a stumping behind the stumps, first delivery from the castle end to Vishmigunaratne, there'll
04:56be a massive ask of this team to defend 122, good swing, catches the inside edge of Atapatu
05:06and this is likely to run away but there'll be some promise in that for Alice Tector Atapatu
05:13and this one worked away and will go to the boundary for four, Chamare Atapatu, lovely stroke
05:21whipped off her legs and that a fine stroke from one of the finest in the game doesn't move, she
05:29knows it's gone to the boundary for four, expansive shot straight back over the bowler's
05:36head and it's almost gone for six, one bounce over the rope and Gunaratne is off the mark
05:41with a fine stroke, for the rankings not too long ago, fuller and wider and put away by Atapatu
05:47doesn't even move, she knows where that's going straight to the boundary and that's a fine stroke
05:55from Gunaratne, not a bottom hand, certainly clipping one away off her legs, Paul is chasing
06:08Paul has just got enough on it to reach the boundary, bold and that is the end of Gunaratne
06:19ever canning into the attack has claimed a wicket in her first over and Sri Lanka lose their first
06:24for 32, this one will be worked away it's worked away fine and that's going to go to the boundary
06:34for four, shot, simply shot and right on cue Chamare Atapatu produces another expansive shot this time
06:51powerful down the ground, just finding that outside edge, Freya Sargent giving chase
07:00and the ball wins the race despite the bit of rain
07:09and it's going to be again a race between Freya Sargent and the ball and again the ball wins the
07:14race, teenager only turns 18 next month and that's Chamare Atapatu at her finest, is low and flat
07:21and incredibly hard and to the boundary it goes Atapatu into the 40s
07:28it's bold and it's beautiful this shot from Chamare Atapatu
07:33didn't quite get as much as she would have liked on it
07:40that's just pierced that gap backwards point and Samara Vikrama joins the boundary hitting party
07:48she moves on to 23 from 37
07:54and that's going to beat both fielders
07:59another boundary off this over
08:06and looks to go to a 50 and instead is caught by Alice Tector
08:11Chamare Atapatu out for 48 looking to go to a half century, Freya Sargent has picked up
08:17the prized wicket, definitely down to that, nicely eased through the leg side from Samara Vikrama
08:25she does chug down the other end but she pretty much knew from the off that was a boundary as
08:30they marched towards victory
08:36well that's been hit with quite some catch up on it
08:40and Samara Vikrama is not hanging about now, this is on for Samara Vikrama
08:46flasher this time but can she get over the head she can't
08:50Sarah Forbes thought she was in with a chance but no, bounces away to the boundary
08:57and that'll be the game, Sri Lanka they win it, Dillari just clubs it into the leg side
09:02and they pick up one run, Samara Vikrama puts her bat under her arm and takes her gloves off
09:08Freya Sargent picks up her goggles, her sunglasses and there's high fives all around Sri Lanka
09:15there's a hug between the two batters in the middle they've won this game today convincingly
09:19they were phenomenal with the ball and they really put the stoppers on Ireland and getting
09:24only 122 on the board it was always going to be a difficult day for the Irish batters for the Irish
09:29bowlers the Sri Lankan batter as well with Chamare Atapatu firing up the top it really took a chunk
09:35out of that chase
