I think it's time to let John Mooney go, to be honest. He's been a great servant to Irish cricket, but seems to be in the squad for purely sentimental reasons these days. Went for more than seven an over today.

Ireland, Canada, Kenya and the Netherlands qualify for the World Cup (which won't feature games in Pakistan, it's just been announced.) Scotland just squeaked into the ODI slots. Afghanistan have also earned ODI status. Ireland face Canada in the tournament final.

Have to agree with you there, some great young talent pushing through and their expierence is vital. I don't think the WC will be hosted in the Sub-Continent, too many previous issues in India and Pakistan is a no go area. I think South Africa are in for another windfall, or Australia

Canada all out for 185 after 48 overs. Trent Johnston took 5 wickets giving up only 14 runs.

Ireland in great shape to win the tournament now.

Great stuff, thanks for all the updates during this tournament.

**holidaysong** · 19/04/2009, 5:15 PM

Any ideas when the Twenty20 squad will be announced?

**BobtheDrog** · 24/04/2009, 10:33 PM

probably 5 minutes after the england final 15 is

**holidaysong** · 26/04/2009, 3:20 PM

How close do you reckon Morgan is to getting into the England squad?

**TheBoss** · 26/04/2009, 4:02 PM

I can not see be added to the squad, they have some good ODI players as it is, it would be a surprise for me if he was added to the panel.

Ireland lose the first 5050 group game in Belfast, to Worcester.

Forgot to congratulate BobTheDrog on beating us in a closely contested Junior C match. Rush IV 22 ao and Sandyford IV 17 ao

Lowest score ever by any SCC team.

At least we dismissed Bob for his 4th consecutive duck against us

Some fellas would do anything to get to the pub early

**BobtheDrog** · 30/04/2009, 2:58 PM

there were about 35 overs bowled so we weren't off to the pub that early

oh and congrats to owlsfan for facing 35 deliveries before he scored his first run

**BobtheDrog** · 30/04/2009, 3:55 PM
