Was that our first six in the world cup?

Bray hit a couple against Zimbabwe.

Bugger 113/6 these guys need to put on 10

**Poor Student** · 17/03/2007, 9:25 PM

Do those two wickets leave us up the creek if the game ends before its time?

**Sheridan** · 17/03/2007, 9:25 PM

White gone! 113/6. McCallan in now. 15 needed off plenty.

**cavan_fan** · 17/03/2007, 9:25 PM

113/7, sh*t

**Sheridan** · 17/03/2007, 9:26 PM

B0llocks. McCallan gone first ball. I think Johnston is injured too...

They lost in a previous WC match v Bangladesh and there have beenm heavy rumours that the match was thrown as the Pakistan players had money on them losing

113-7 Ireland back to 9-2 on in betting.

Surely even with the wobble we're more likely that that to win?

One point to remeber is that your weakest batsmen come in last, the last 3 are bowlers primarily

No prob, its not our national sport!

**Terry** · 17/03/2007, 9:34 PM

116/7 12 more runs !!!!!

**pineapple stu** · 17/03/2007, 9:36 PM

They're saying that the game is likely to go the whole 50 overs on cricinfo - "They are unlikely to go off now. The light is getting no worse so it's through to the finish. Pakistan are looking bullish for the first time in a while ... it's tense" - does that mean we're back chasing 132 then?

Or is "the finish" still the 47 overs?

The finish is 47 overs, However there is no way it will go that far, either we will be bowled out or we'll score it with 3/4 overs to spare.

**pineapple stu** · 17/03/2007, 9:39 PM

Is this going to be about the lowest scoring game ever?

I don't see any reference to 50 overs.
