Ireland completed a historic victory over the West Indies in a T20 international at Sabina Park. Fairly well stuffed the World Champions in their backyard by 6 wickets with 5 balls to spare. Great effort.
Second T20 international on Friday and an ODI on Sunday.
Unbelievable result. Over the moon.
What a result. Didn't get a look at it yet, but must catch highlights tomorrow. super stuff.
They are our bogey team, arent they, good result
Ireland in Business again in the second T20 international. WI 62-4 after 13 overs and even at that have dropped 2 pretty handy chances. Hope they don't prove too costly.

69-5 after 15 overs. This is mad stuff.
92-9 it finished.
What a performance by the Irish. The Windies just don't want to be there at all.. awful hail mary batting!!
I can't concentrate on the egg chasing while this is going on.
Mrs S is out so was looking fwd to Wales v France, a game I always like. But now I'm glued to my iPad. Come on, finish it.
Is the stream still on a break or is the action back on... single bat it.. keep the head.. no wild swinging we get home for ten overs.
4-1 already after 2 and a bit overs. Sterling went for a mad swoop.Quote:

Only a slim chance now I think.
see off narine and just attack.. this is nerve wracking!
that was a very brave effort, good recovery considering the way the top order collapsed.. Porterfield, Sterling and O'Brien will be very disappointed with their contribution.. that 3-1 for Windies before Ireland batted was a steal!!
Batting has always been the Achilles Heel for Ireland. In matches such as this, Ireland needed their experienced players to produce. Those players like Porterfield, Joyce and O'Brien should have done better considering their international experience. In terms of fielding and bowling, the team is as good as anyone, they may not have an outstanding bowler, but as a group they are effective.
COYBIG. You did it in the rugby now do it in the cricket, come on Ireland!:)
Live updates here. Early wicket for Ireland but Zim scoring well of first 2 overs.
