4 4's in a row for Stirling in the last over of the power play. Solid start, it should be a close run thing.
100-2. Stirling just gone. 10.3 overs. We seem to be well ahead of the required rate.

decent stream
Thanks but I can't open it at work.
Are we making heavy weather of it now?
O'Brien made mincemeat of Zimbabwe in the third alst over but out on the last ball. seven needed from twelve.
Thompson in now - five needed from eight
FFS, nailbiting.
Joyce out - two needed from three balls.
Sorensen run out on direct hit - two needed from two
Jeepers, we just did it. Someone describe the last ball to me please. All I can read is that it was a bye.
Ireland win with dodgiest bye on last ball - Zimbabwe keeper had a throw to stumps to keep it at a tie but missed.
Wow that was close! Really dont know how Taylor missed the stumps when right in front of him, everyone running everywhere! Kevin O Brien was the game changer for us, got a 6 and a four when we need it. Great game to watch, but didnt need that today!PHEW![]()

Looked like medium pacer for last ball - Zimbabwe keeper standing back which was a bit of a mystery. Not sure who was on strike but a swing and a miss. Keeper takes careful aim and misses by about three inches. Irish non-strike runner collides with Zimbabwe fielder on crease side of stumps and falls in home.
Needed the third last over from O'Brien to make it home. Think he got about 13-14 off five before being out on last ball.
So, the finish wasn't unlike the first game in WC 2007, just with better wicket-keeping (by us) 7 years ago!
Had it been a tie would the wicket count have had any bearing?
According to a bit of googling, it goes to a super over in case of a tie.
Ireland v UAE
Floodlight failure.
Game suspended after 14.2 of our innings.
We're 103-3; chasing 124 to win.
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
We won on D/L.
Zimbabwe beat Holland and will surely beat UAE. So if we fail to beat Holland there will be 3 teams with two wins out if 3. Am I right in saying it'll then go to run rate? That's where not being more convincing versus Zimbabwe when we had the chance might hurt us I guess.
