That marks the end of our coverage from the 3rd ODI of the series between Ireland Women and Sri Lanka Women. I am Saptak Sanyal signing off on behalf of my co-commentator Ninaad Dixit and our scorer/analyst Asraj Khan. GOOD NIGHT.
The Irish skipper Orla Prendergast collects the series trophy and joins her teammates for a photo session. A comprehensive 2-1 victory against a strong Sri Lankan lineup.
Orla Prendergast(Ireland Women Captain): "I am definitely very pleased with the series win. We have got a few positives in this series. We batted first and it took a lot of energy. We lost a few wickets and that went against us.
Freya was incredible. The way she bowled in the powerplay was great and I must mention Amy Hunter. Amy was great with her performances in the first two games in this series."

Arlene Kelly (Player of the Series): "Throughout the whole series its been a comprehensive team performance. For me personally it was sticking to strengths, not getting too carried away with what the opposition is doing. Full credit to the team throughout the whole series.
I was happy to have the ball in hand again leading to that point throughout the whole 100 overs. With both bat and ball we had performed as a unit.
We spent time at the wicket, we had our plans. Maybe we didn't quite execute them today but we'll learn from that and move forward. Massive thanks to everyone who has come down and supported us throughout."

Chamari Athapaththu(Player of the Match and Sri Lanka Captain): "I'm really happy about my and my team's performance. Every game is crucial for us. These two points are very important for us in the ICC championship. We have no games left before the T-20 World cup.
Harshitha was really good. I have an experienced batting and bowling line-up. The conditions went against us but you can't blame this. We have to improve as a team in these places ahead of the world cup.

Time for the post-match presentations.
8:04 PM IST, 3:34 PM Local Time: A magnificent comeback from Sri Lanka to finish the unsuccessful tour on a high note as they defeat Ireland convincingly by 8 wickets in the 3rd and final ODI of the series at Stormont.
Sri Lanka won the toss and decided to bowl first. The opening bowlers Achini Kulasuriya (3/35) and Inoshi Fernando (1/7 in 10, 5 maidens) never allowed the Irish batters to score freely. Skipper Chamari Athapaththu also picked up 3/15 with fellow spinner Sachini Nisansala (2/35) to restrict the hosts to 122 in 46.3 overs.
The Lankan openers started off in attacking fashion. Chamari Athapaththu dealt in boundaries scoring 48 in 49 deliveries with 10 hits to the fence despite her opening partner Vishmi Gunaratne falling cheaply in the 7th over.
Athapaththu was later joined by the player in form Harshitha Samarawickrama who added 62 for the 2nd wicket with the skipper, taking the game away from the hosts.
The skipper was dismissed off a full toss by Freya Sargent when the Lankans were just 29 runs away from the win. Harshitha then picked up where the captain left the chase and finished unbeaten on 48, facing 56 balls and hitting 7 fours in total.
Sargent (1/38) and Ava Canning (1/14) were the only wicket takers for Ireland with skipper Orla Prendergast (0/13) bowling a tidy spell in the first powerplay.
Sri Lanka will be consoled with this victory as Ireland already have the series to their name winning the first two ODIs in convincing fashion. The hosts had a successful series across both formats as they tied the T20I series against the Asia Cup champions Sri Lanka and now have defeated the experienced side 2-1 in the one-day series marking their first ever ODI series win against this Asian nation.
