That's all we have from this tri-series. Ireland finish unbeaten with 7 points, while Scotland and Netherlands take second and third places respectively. Netherlands suffered two narrow defeats against Ireland, losing by one run a few days ago, and going down by just 3 runs today. Hope you enjoyed our coverage. Until next time, it's goodbye.
14:18 Local Time, 12:18 GMT, 17:48 IST: Netherlands were on top for the majority of the chase, but have failed to get the job done. They fall short by 3 runs in the end to finish last in this tri-series. Chasing 162, the opening pair of Levitt and O'Dowd put on 67 to set a brilliant platform at the top. O'Dowd, in particular, was fluent from the start and looked like he would take the hosts over the line as he played superbly for 60 off 41 balls. However, his dismissal in the 16th over and some good bowling at the death from Ireland pegged Netherlands back. Adair struck twice in the 18th over in which he gave away just 6 runs, while McCarthy and Young executed well enough in the 19th and 20th overs to seal the win.

Young to Bas de Leede, 1 run, full ball on middle, in the slot for de Leede but he doesn't make good contact as he lofts it down the ground. Goes on the bounce to long-on and will only be a single as Netherlands suffer another narrow defeat to Ireland
Netherlands need 5 off the final ball. A four will take us to a Super Over
Young to Bas de Leede, 2 runs, low full toss on middle and leg, de Leede can't get under it as he swipes it through midwicket. Will only be a couple of runs
Young to van Beek, 1 run, cracking yorker on middle and off, and van Beek can do nothing other than squeeze it out
Logan van Beek, right handed bat, comes to the crease
Young to Barresi, out Bowled!! Swing and a miss from Barresi, and the stumps are rattled. Fuller than a length, slanted in around off, and Barresi looks to slog across the line. Connects thin air. Barresi b Young 8(7) [4s-1]
Young to Barresi, THATS OUT!! Bowled!!
Young to Bas de Leede, 1 run, low full toss on leg, de Leede drills it to long-on
Young to Bas de Leede, 2 runs, slower length ball on leg, de Leede is deceived by the lack of pace as he goes for the lofted shot and he miscues it in the air. Still gets enough to clear mid-off though
Craig Young [3.0-0-28-1] is back into the attack

McCarthy to Barresi, 2 runs, Barresi anticipates the line outside off, walks across the stumps and flicks it away through midwicket. He wants two, de Leede hesitates but they make it across eventually
McCarthy goes round the wicket. Deep point and deep cover in place. Fine leg is in the ring
McCarthy to Barresi, FOUR, banged in short, Barresi makes room and ramps it in the air over short third. Superbly done. Fielder gives chase but it trickles away into the ropes
