TYRONE DERBY IN UNDER 18 CUP FINAL

Fox Lodge and Donemana will contest the Under 18 cup final after both teams won contrasting semi-finals last week.

Four wickets for Swarnim Jha, plus two apiece for Josh Marshall, Ben Heywood and Sam Ashenhurst saw Fox Lodge bowl out Newbuildings for just 73 - Oliver Dunn making 25. 

Jha then struck four fours and two sixes in an unbeaten 35, sharing a 47-run stand with Ben Heywood as Fox Lodge completed a nine-wicket victory.

The other semi-final produced a real game for the ages as Donemana ousted Bready in a last-ball thriller.

Jonathan Orr's unbeaten 75 saw him and skipper Suyesh Kumar (52) added 94 for the third wicket on their way to a total of 149 - two wickets for Jacob Cloughton.

Two wickets apiece for Cameron McClay and Bobby Stott gave Bready the advantage, but Luke Marrillier kept finding the boundary to keep Donemana in the hunt. There were three needed off the last ball, which Marillier sent over the ropes for his sixth six as he ended on a 59-ball unbeaten 88.

The final will take place at The Holm on Tuesday June 16th, and promises to be a really exciting contest between two talented and evenly-matched teams.
