00:00You
00:14Slugged a little bit, but just about high enough over mid on well
00:18She was caught there in game one
00:19But she made sure this time to get the power and the connection for her first boundary Amy hunter getting going
00:30Sweep shot into the deep finds the gap between square leg and midwick at two full on that occasion
00:34Gimani two straights as well and Gabby Lewis helps herself to another boundary
00:40Gimani gets another one straight to the fielder at mid off an Amy hunter throws it away
00:46Full outside off an Amy hunter can't miss the fielders. She throws her head to the sky
00:51She can't believe that she's gone and the youngster takes her first
00:54I'll
00:57Short her again and cut away big gap there
00:59all the Prendergast has found us and that one's probably gonna bobble away for her for her first boundary and
01:041,000 runs in t20i cricket for all the Prendergast
01:10Big thick edge and I don't think she'll manage it four runs. The edges have been working well for Gabby Lewis
01:16Four runs to close out that over actually batting and bowling together, isn't it?
01:21Full toss dispatched is gonna be one bounce for
01:28Again finding the outside edge Gabby Lewis, but the ball is gonna win that race. It's a quick outfield as we know
01:38Well that has gone up very high and the fielder for a moment thought she might be in with the chance and that is just a
01:45glorious looking strike from all the Prendergast
01:51And that's nicely played the pigeons don't like it much in a miss field and it goes for four
02:01And that's well played it's gonna be the fielder and that brings up the 50 for Gabby Lewis brings it up with a boundary
02:07with a glorious inning so far this from
02:12The young opener is actually
02:14Chipped up in the air. It's gonna line just safe and the spin sends it off to the left and eventually hit the boundary
02:23Oh
02:24That's deaf touch two boundaries very very different
02:27But very very good from order Prendergast just gets a tiny little edge from it really frustrating for the wiki keepers back-to-back boundaries
02:33Come on, he back on
02:36Well, that's clubbed away not gonna cut that off
02:39four to open the over
02:42And
02:44Again pulled away and again, that's gonna be for back-to-back boundaries to open this over as well and Gabby Lewis moves into the 60s
02:55You can see that
02:58That's a great shot there from Lewis, that's a brilliant shot
03:03Into the pitch that time pulled away and that's gonna be another four off the bat of Gabby Lewis
03:08in their total
03:10Their total
03:13Passing their total with in the 17th over
03:17It's another four to Gabby Lewis
03:22Gives herself room over backward point and it picks up another four last over
03:30In that the consistency of the bowling was was brilliant on Sunday and as that goes for four there
03:40Well, that's gone up very very high from Prendergast, Fielder sets herself under it and takes it and
03:47Finally the partnership is broken
03:53Full toss given the treatment and it goes all the way
03:56And Gabby Lewis picks up six and moves herself on to 98
04:01She is not hanging about
04:06And that is it
04:10She holds her arms a lot
04:12She gives Rebecca Stoeckl a hug
04:14And everyone around Pembroke is on their feet. She lifts her helmet and her bat
04:20Points to the crowd her family are out here
04:24And what a knock this has been from the young opener 102 from just 68 deliveries
04:30And it puts her in some fine company only four centuries have been scored in t20s
04:36Against Sri Lanka and Gabby Lewis now joins the likes of Alyssa Healy, Beth Mooney, Deandra Dottin and Laura Woolvart
04:46Steps back in her crease stand and deliver back over the bowler's head
04:50And Gabby Lewis is not slowing down with the finish line in sight
04:57This time steps across clubs it into the leg side back-to-back boundaries
05:01And
05:04That's well dug out and has pierced that gap it could only have been two
05:10Three yards between those two fielders and she's bisected it
05:14perfectly
05:19Well
05:20There's a misfield again
05:21And they're going to think about coming back for the second and Gabby Lewis gonna have to get her skates on and she's been run out
05:27Of the final delivery and actually I think she was somewhat sold down the river by Rebecca Stokel
05:33So it won't be a red inker for Gabby Lewis, but I don't think she'll be too worried
05:41And as we can see there Gabby Lewis the star of the day with her 119
05:47of 75
05:49All the Prenagas supported her really well with 38
05:52And a tough day for the Sri Lankan bowlers
05:55Gimhani
05:56Ended up taking a wicket and so did kula surya, but no wickets for the remainder of the bowlers
06:02173 for three the final score a sergeant with the new ball
06:07Vishmi gunaratne gets into her work straight away. She's
06:12Opening the batting faces the first delivery
06:18It's not too straight just lifted over square leg
06:21Talked about a player in form and the kinds of shots that gabby lewis was playing at the end of her innings
06:25There's a shot of someone in form just leans back lifts it over square leg four runs a pace
06:32A top edge chance feel they're coming underneath it
06:35Leopold takes the catch and that's the breakthrough that ireland will have wanted one of the two openers
06:41They wanted to get out early. It was vishmi gunaratne who didn't quite make the right connection
06:46Is
06:49This another chance
06:50No, just about has the legs to make it over christina cool to riley's head in fine leg
06:55Just a little bit too straight from jane mcguire few hours
07:00On sunday vacant space on the leg side and unfortunately for her it goes for four
07:07Much better but a chance gone
07:09The change of angle works for ava canning pushes across her cd perera who looks to double up on her boundaries
07:15But all she could do was find the edge question asked and see redfern raises the dreaded finger
07:24And that beats the diving fielder and this really is starting to turn the tide
07:33Well, that's going to be no ball next will be a free hit and just slipped out of the hand perhaps
07:39So a free hit
07:42Well, she takes it on
07:45And it's gone all the way and this is just not the batter you want facing when you're bowling a free hit
07:52they're gonna do
07:54I was premeditated there from samara vikram has chance in the deep but just over the head
07:58But it wasn't a chance in the end for christina cool to riley. She did jump
08:03Now that brings up the 50 for samara vikram s3 on the track for her
08:10Yeah, that's for me the line but unfortunately she finds the gap
08:13Maybe third needs to be out. It doesn't seem like you can set a field. It's a samara vikram
08:20Straight two straight and just a little tickle down the leg side yet another boundary and another expensive over for arlene kelly
08:28Two boundaries and a six in it
08:32Full and straight
08:34Down towards the fielder in the deep but she can't come around too wide is ava canning and from 51
08:41Two straight from delaney top edge takes it over freya sergeant in 45
08:45And it just feels like the boundaries keep coming for sri lanka
08:52Well, she's got her shot that change in bowling that is chain mcguire if you don't mind comes into the team gets the breakthrough
08:59Samara vikram out. Well, she's finally dismissed after over 200 runs on the trot in three t20 eyes
09:0565 from 44 for her and could that be this changing moment for ireland?
09:12Well, there's a boundary for kavisha del harry she was clear
09:15She knew exactly what she wanted to do got into position
09:18And made use of the two fielders up inside the ring at third and 45 be there
09:24Fuller and straight
09:26But the gap found what a shot that is from kavisha del harry had to make room for herself
09:31And finds the space in between extra cover and mid-off
09:35That's one of real power. Well, the other one was placement. This is power and placement
09:41a little bit short from orla prendergast
09:46Well a really wild delivery from freya sergeant, unfortunately
09:50And for nalachi da silva she's experienced beyond anything sergeant will have seen so she helps herself to four runs
10:00Leading edge chance taken freya sergeant makes the second breakthrough in a couple of overs
10:06Well look to turn it into the leg side and nalachi da silva
10:11But all she could do is find the leading edge. You called us
10:14And
10:16Heaved into the deep
10:18Mid-off inside the ring so it was a pretty much a free shot for anoushka sanjuani when you're coming at the back end
10:26Sanjuani looking to heave it leg side chance taken orla prendergast gets the wicket ireland celebrate again
10:32Well, we wondered what should sergeant have stayed on the answer for now is yes
10:39Moves across early
10:41And sends it all the way and I actually think it's gone over the fence
10:48Finds the outside edge and she's gone that is exactly
10:52What ireland needed and that is such a mature head
10:57on orla prendergast
11:01And again goes for the scoop and it comes off and shurlankans and the scoop eh, it's a very brave shot
11:11Yeah
11:14That's well cut off in the end they'll still come back for the second gonna have to be quick run out
11:18Finger goes up from sue redfern
11:26And that's gone up feel that sets herself under it can't get there and it goes for six shurlanka is still in this
11:37And a swing and a miss and that is it ireland have won the game
11:41And there's a double fist bump from arlene kelly. She get hugs all around the first one to hug her gabby lewis
11:47Well, it was her century that really set it up today
11:51And they are absolutely
11:53Exultant the girls in green and what a game we have seen today ireland women winning it by seven runs
