Ireland fall to 10-wicket loss as Australia win series

Ireland fell to a 10 wicket loss to Austalia as the tourists completed a series victory in the third one day international in Dublin. Chasing down Ireland's total of 217, the tourists did not lose a wicket as openers Phoebe Litchfield and Annabel Sutherland - the latter moving up the order in place of injured captain Alyssa Healy - each scored centuries to race over the line with more than 14 overs to spare. Orla Prendergast hit 71 for the hosts, who lost the second match by 153 runs after the series opener was abandoned because of rain.

The series concluded with a 2-0 victory to the Aussies, who won the second match by 153 runs on Tuesday. The first match was rained off on Sunday.

Ireland had celebrated a victory over Australia earlier this year, albeit in a 15-a-side warm-up game for the T20 World Cup.
