A superb, disciplined all-round display saw Ireland Women claim just their second-ever victory over South Africa in T20I cricket on a sunny Friday evening at Pembroke Cricket Club.
It was a record-breaking day on two fronts for first-time captain Gaby Lewis. At 21, she became the youngest person to captain Ireland while with the bat, she overtook Clare Shillington to become Ireland’s leading run-scorer in women’s T20I cricket.
