Ban 205 all out 49.2 overs, time for a snooze.
No celebration from Trent when he caught that last ball.
How long is the half time break? is there time for a snooze?
Bangla should still be favourites to win.
A few early wickets would be a bit of a downer.
I'm sure Simmons will tell the team to plan to see out the 50 overs. No mad run chase early in the innings.
Do you know your cricket Noely?
Here we go. Get through the first ten overs without losing a wicket.Quote:

6/0
Only 200 to win!!! Wonder what batting's like out there??
I don't want to jinx him, but Porterfield looks like he could settle in there for a decent stint.
Just keep picking up 3 to 4 an over for the next few overs and no more cheap wickets. Joyce and Porterfield are capable of staying in for a long time (hopefully not jinked now).
Is there anywhere this can be watched online?
are there any radio commentaries anywhere? at college so can't watch it on the skyplayer or on dodgy streams.
few streams at myp2p.eu and the othersQuote:

Noely, I'm glad you got the jinx in on Porterfield, gets me off the hook.
Are Ireland doing okay?
63/2 come on Ireland
nervous stuff this cricket
looking at it on Indian stream, bloody advertisement every time ball goes out - argh
we're doing OK, keeping the run rate up with constant singles. If we have these wickets in hand later on we'll be in a really good position.
I see PP has Ireland at 8/15 in from from 1/1 at the break and Bangla have drifted out to 11/8 from 4/6 at the break.
IŽd have a punt on Bangla :)

'Bothers' has just joined the commentary team. Come on Ireland. Just keep up this run rate with no more wickets lost.
oh dear
Joyce gone. :(
******. First loose shot he played as well. Going to be touch and go now.
White bowled. Getting panicky now.
White gone and no surprise with some of his shots. This is nerve wrecking stuff. Up to the O'Brien's know.
Ireland 1/2 now
IŽd say it all depends on how many runs KOŽB can rack up before he gets dismissed
Very finely balanced now. 14 off the last over keeps the run rate reasonably comfortable (though it seems to be hard to score on this pitch). Another wicket could ruin it though.
Nerve wracking stuff. Runs have been hard to come by in the last 10 minutes and O'Brien looked shaky in that last over.
Will we do it?
O'Brien gone. ****
Balls.
Stupid f**king shot to play.
Its going to take some rustic hikes from Botha and Mooney, Johnson to get to 206 now mixed in with the singles.
4. it's been a while since one of them.
I doubt we'll do it now. I've got to collect the kids from school in ten mins. I think they'll be left hanging around!
Jeez that was close.
Hawkeye doesn't necessarily rule.
The crowd look nervous, are Bangladesh the Wolves of the cricket world?
Another stupid f**king shot. 42 needed from 62 balls - no need for wild shots.
