Island youngsters overcome France

The Isle of Man under-15s cricket team have bounced back from their opening defeat to favourites Italy at the ICC European Division Two Championships.

Yesterday they lost to the host nation by 40 runs, but today they beat France by 66 runs.

The Island's youngsters finished on 211-8 off their 35 overs, with Shaun Kelly (66) and Rowan Bird (44) the pick of the batsmen.

Kelly then put in some great work with the ball, taking 4-28 as the Island dismissed their opponents for 145.

Tomorrow the Isle of Man face Gibraltar.
