I congratulate the Irish cricket team on a fantastic victory this morning. It was very hard fought and follows its win against the West Indies last week. The Irish cricket team has not received any capital funding from this Government. We need a few extra quid to finish our ground in Malahide. This is the perfect time for the Minister of State at the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport, Deputy Ring, to announce a bit of capital funding because in the worst of times, I delivered €450,000 for it. That is coming to fruition now. It is a fantastic result for Phil Simmons and the Irish team. I hope they will get out of the group but I think they will. We have a couple more games to play to get into the quarter finals.
