Specials – When Ireland became champions of Europe

The 2001 Women’s European Cricket Championship was the sixth edition of the tournament. England had dominated it since the first edition in 1989, winning each of the first five titles.

Record Book – Highest ODI scores for Ireland by position

Though Ireland lost the final ODI of their recent home series against South Africa, a record-breaking hundred from Simi Singh meant that they went down fighting.

Specials – Associate nations at the World Cup, Part 5

  The 16-team format used for the 2007 World Cup proved to be short-lived, as the tournament reverted to a two-group structure of 14 teams (as was the case in 2003, but with quarterfinals instead of the Super Six) for the next two editions. In this final part of our series on Associates at the […]

Specials – Associate nations at the World Cup, Part 4

  Bangladesh’s elevation to Test status in 2000, coupled with the increase in the number of participating teams by two, led to room for four Associates at the 2003 World Cup in Africa.

Record Book – Pakistan’s first meeting with Ireland

  It is only fitting that Pakistan are the opponents for Ireland’s inaugural men’s Test. The Irish cricketing renaissance began with the famous defeat of Pakistan at the 2007 World Cup, and moreover, Pakistan have played more bilateral ODI series in Ireland than any other team (thrice: in 2011, 2013 and 2016). Here is a […]
