county

GET IN!!!! I CANT BELIEVE IT

Josh Little wow, what a man. McCarthy owes him numerous red stripes.

Craig Young I was wrong well bowled😀

Strumms

Paul Sterlings 95 came off 47 deliveries, some innings, pity he didn’t get the hundred he deserved but he won’t care about that now.

Hodors Appletart

that mccarthy over holy god

BOHtox

Not to big him up too much but Josh Little will potentially be the best bowler cricket has ever had

county

That was some last over tbh, after 27 runs off the 18th over I thought we were fcuked.

Agree 100%, great win

McCarthy must be a VERY relieved man!! Appalling bowling and you could see his nerve had gone with last ball, a wide hip-high full toss!!

Great win all the same!! For once a close game goes Ireland’s way!

It looked as if he might have been bowling with his eyes closed, a total loss of nerve, he was struggling to keep the ball on the pitch,... somebody needs to have a word.... it didn’t cost us today but in future we might not get away with it.

Great win - but Phil Simmons will be tearing his hair out!

First, Hetmeyer's insane attempts to throw his wicket away (Balbernie must be grateful that he got a second chance so soon after badly misjudging the first one!).

Plus Pooran's batting in Dockrell's last over was appalling. Four dots in a row, three of which would have been wides if he had copped himself on and left them alone! That was the over that left us in with a shout in the 20th.

Great result, thought it was gone tho after the 18th. Lucky

Barry McCarthy should know better than that, he`s been around long enough

Dockrell is beneath this level tho

Dockrell averages 20.5 in T20 internationals. He averages over thirty against two teams (Afghanistan and Australia) and doesn't have an average against India, England and UAE. He has an overall economy of less than seven. I wouldn't have him as my first choice bowler but it's hardly clear that he is below this level.

I`ve stood behind him watching his action and results. For me he does`nt do enough with the ball,his batting is not strong either. Plenty fine for Leinster Div 1. Not trying t0 knock the chap but in a situation like this is Andy McBrine not a better option

Phil Simmons doesn't have any hair

Windies win toss and for the fifth time in a row on this tour Ireland will bat first

Strumms

Great six there, more boundaries needed, be an ideal time to up the rate a bit with wickets in hand.

Strumms

Out of the ground by Delaney, fûck two unreal shots

Richard Hillman

Gareth Delany is a health and safety hazard

Strumms

Brilliant catch there in fairness, running full pelt to make up the ground and then diving forward at speed to take the catch a foot off the deck.
