𝚆𝚎𝚎𝚔𝚎𝚗𝚍 𝚁𝚎𝚟𝚒𝚎𝚠 | Two games to finish the 2021 season and two impressive wins by the 2nd & 4th XI's on Saturday.

There was a fantastic unbeaten century from Sunil Gautam (139*) and a half-century from Abdul Ghaffar (50) at the Mardyke which led the 2nd XI to a formidable total of 303 against @quinscc which saw them eventually win by 242 runs.

An excellent partnership including two unbeaten half-centuries from Craig Taylor (56*) and Grant Hood (51*) led the 4th XI to a 6 wicket win against @lismore_cc at the Castle Grounds. The skipper Bilal Ahsan led the way with the ball taking 3-14 and his side finished the season in 3rd spot in the Division 3 table.

So that just leaves one game remaining... A Cork County Select XI will face the Leprechauns on Saturday starting at 12 noon. The fixture will be the last official action at the Mardyke for the season and should hopefully be a great way to sign off for 2021! 🇬🇦 #WeAreCounty

🗣️ Fantastic unbeaten 💯 from Sunil leads the 2nd XI to a comfortable home win to finish the season in style. Well done to the while squad for a hard fought season in T20 and 45 over formats. 🇬🇦 #WeAreCounty

𝘍𝘐𝘟𝘛𝘜𝘙𝘌𝘚 | Just two adult fixtures remaining for the 2021 season on Saturday as the 2nd XI host @quinscc at the Mardyke while the 4th XI travel to the Castle Grounds to face @lismore_cc.

Both sides will be aiming to finish the season strongly and a big win for the 2nd XI could see them finish in second position in the Division 1 table.

The U13's are in action on Sunday with games against their Harlequins counterparts at the Mardyke while the Internal U14 Series also continues on Sunday with the Cronan XI taking on the Ifti XI at 12 noon.

Best of luck to all sides but most importantly enjoy it! 🇬🇦 #WeAreCounty

𝚆𝚎𝚎𝚔𝚎𝚗𝚍 𝚁𝚎𝚟𝚒𝚎𝚠 | The highlight of the weekend has to be the 3rd XI clinching the Division 2 title with a comprehensive 6 wicket win over Limerick Blaster at Lydican. It was fitting that the skipper Peter Barlow was at the crease when the winning runs were struck and under his captaincy, the side has shown great consistency throughout the league campaign. Congratulations to Peter and the whole squad!

The 1st XI ended their season in Leinster and Munster leagues with defeats both competitions at the weekend. Finishing 6th in closely contested BUAKIT Championship table, the final two league defeats to North Kildare and North County unfortunately cost them any opportunity of reaching the finals day at Sydney Parade.

The 2nd XI got back to winning ways with an impressive win on the road thanks to an undefeated century from Nabeel Anjum and 72 from Mustak Mardan. They finish their campaign at home to Harlequins on Saturday.

Unfortunately, the 4th XI were unable to maintain their push for the title after defeat to Lismore 2C means they are now unable to finish top. They now finish their season with a trip to Castle Grounds to face the other Lismore side in the competition.

There was a win for the U13’s against Limerick with Alessandro De Freitas taking the Man of the Match accolades with 3-4 and 12* to see the side home.

The U15’s were involved in a thrilling encounter also against Limerick which was dominated with the bat with the Adare side coming out on top by just 2 runs despite runs from Cillian Ross (43) and Sam Mackenzie (34) chasing 159.

Well done to all involved! 🇬🇦 🏏 #WeAreCounty

Cork County 175-4 (Ghaffar 78, Barlow 22*, Donnelly 20) beat Limerick Blasters 174-8 (Mcgurk 2-30, Ghaffar 2-44) by 6 wickets.

𝘍𝘐𝘟𝘛𝘜𝘙𝘌𝘚 | There is no let

𝘍𝘐𝘟𝘛𝘜𝘙𝘌𝘚 | There is no let-up in the action as the season begins to wind down and the league competitions hot up. The 1st XI make the trip to @northcountycc in their final BUAKIT Championship fixture and will be aiming to finish the campaign strongly. On Sunday they face @quinscc again in their final Premier Division tie with the league wrapped up last weekend.

The 2nd XI are on the road yet again with a long trip to Ballyeighan to face Nenagh 1 while Bilal Ahsan and his 4th XI will be hoping to maintain their Division 3 title hopes when they host @lismore_cc at the Mardyke.

The 3rd XI will also be on the road and could claim the Division 2 title if they avoid defeat against Limerick Blasters 1 at Lydican on Sunday. Peter Barlow and his side will be in a buoyant mood after a thrilling win last weekend.

The U13's and U15's are also in league action when they face @limerickcricket in their respective competitions.

Best of luck to all sides but most importantly enjoy it! 🇬🇦 #WeAreCounty

It was great to have parents, coaches, volunteers and the Club President in attendance to enjoy the presentation and acknowledge the effort from everyone involved to ensure the campaign ran smoothly and the players could perform to the best of their ability. 🥳 🇬🇦 #WeAreCounty

It was great to have Kenny Carroll and @cricketleinster Youth Secretary Aoife O'Brien down at the Mardyke on Saturday to present the league trophy to our Colts skipper Eshan O'Sullivan. 🥳 🇬🇦 #WeAreCounty

𝚆𝚎𝚎𝚔𝚎𝚗𝚍 𝚁𝚎𝚟𝚒𝚎𝚠 | 3 wins and 3 losses was the return from our four adults sides from an extremely busy weekend of action. The 1st XI had two big wins against Railway Union on Saturday and then against Harlequins on Sunday but were unable to make it a hat-trick of wins on Monday when they went down to defeat against North Kildare.

The 162 run victory over Harlequins on Sunday clinched the Munster Premier Division title with one game still to play and leaves the 1st XI unbeaten in the competition to date. Congratulations to Ross Durity and his squad who had to dig deep on several occasions over the past few weeks! 🥳🏆

There was two heavy away defeats for the 2nd & 4th XI against Limerick and Waterford District, respectively. Both defeats mean their title hopes are very much hanging by a thread heading into the final few rounds of fixtures.

The 3rd XI recorded a fantastic 1 wicket victory over Harlequins on Sunday at Farmers Cross. Chasing 346 to win, Abdul Ghaffar finished unbeaten on a remarkable total of 185 to clinch victory thanks to some solid support from young Niall Donnelly at the death. 🇬🇦 #WeAreCounty
