Manx crowned European Division Two champions

The Isle of Man became European Division Two champions with a comprehensive eight-wicket victory over Sweden in Corfu over the weekend.

Gareth Dawson’s side had already secured promotion to Division One on Friday afternoon after they beating Israel to make the final.

Chasing a modest Swedish total of 122 for seven, the Manx were set on their way by the superb opening partnership of Max Stokoe and Gareth Morris, who put on 104 in 12 overs.

The Swedes battled hard but never really threatened anything other than a win for the Isle of Man.

The team will now compete against some major forces of European cricket next season and will also enter in to provisional qualifying for the World Cup.
