Ireland have beaten the UAE in their opening InterContinental Cup by an innings and 26 runs at Malahide.
Final Scorecard
After an impressive bowling display from spinners George Dockrell (4-93) and Paul Stirling (2-31), and Bready paceman Craig Young (2-57) took Ireland to the cusp of victory yesterday, only one wicket was required for the home side to claim an innings victory when play resumed at the later time of 11.30am on the fourth and final morning at Malahide.
It only took four Craig Young deliveries to seal victory for Ireland, who have secured the maximum 20 points and set the early pace in the InterContinental Cup.
