Match 3: Ireland vs. Jersey

Jersey and Ireland have had previous encounters, but none so fun and jovial as the encounter at the Quayside public house the night before this game. Jersey won "Killer" on the pool tables, thanks to Julie Sangan, and as such held the upper hand coming into this ‘clash of the sociables’.

The upper hand was rendered null and void when Ireland took the lead with consistent run scoring and proceeded to shut out Jersey in the first 4 innings. Roles then switched when Jersey came good and their runners were being brought home while Jersey's defence were shutting out Ireland's batters. But it was all too late for Jersey as the Irish got to inning 7 with a commanding lead which Jersey had little chance to close up.
