Cricket: Boyd Rankin was Ireland's hero today as they defeated Namibia by nine runs in their Inter-Continental Cup game in Windhoek.
Despite only managing 69 runs in their first innings, Ireland turned the match around when they bowled out their opponents for 119.
With Ireland recording 164 in their second innings it meant Namibia needed 115 for victory.
However, Boyd was inspirational by taking five wickets for 39 off 12 overs, restricting Namibia to just 106.
The victory keeps Ireland on course to retain the trophy.
