Ireland captain Gaby Lewis believes that their dramatic victory over England showed the "character" within the group.
"We were hugely disappointed with our first two performances but to turn that around and come out with a win, we are delighted."Lewis managed 72 from 56 balls, forming a good partnership with 18-year-old Amy Hunter, who added a run-a-ball 18."It is good to bat with her again and we set the tempo off well and we continued that throughout which was good," Lewis explained.
That left four required from the final delivery - and number-nine batter Alana Dalzell found the boundary to seal Ireland's famous win.
