y0ssar1an22

nice, 42/3

Strumms

wicket !!! Young again….. excellent bowling and smart work by Little to get under it

y0ssar1an22

53/4 now. nice c and b from delany

y0ssar1an22

about a 55 run partnership here, could well do with a wicket. run rate still down 6.65.

Pudsy33

These two are being problematic

Strumms

yeah we could do with a wicket now. It’s good batting but….

Looks like we’d limit them to around 125/130 but they’ll do a bit better…..

y0ssar1an22

wicket eventually, 128/5 with 8 balls left.

was nearly a balls up

Strumms

over 10 overs since the last wicket… good timing there, hopefully that can interrupt the Canadian momentum…and another, brilliant… last over, keep the head nothing careless, come on !

y0ssar1an22

128/6. would be great to limit them to like 135, or 7 from the last over if movva can be kept off strike

y0ssar1an22

canada finish on 137. would have taken that beforehand.

Strumms

6.9 the required run rate… should be straightforward, emphasis on ‘should’…

Pudsy33

Stirling is a bit of a liability these days, awful shot

y0ssar1an22

bit slow there by stirling. 9 from 17. 26/1 after 5.4.

y0ssar1an22

and now balbirnie gone. 32/2

y0ssar1an22

and 41/3. need to develop a partnership here

Pudsy33

Tector gone, we are in serious trouble. O'Brien sounds devastated on comms

y0ssar1an22

lucky there. surprised 3rd ump didn't run that through a bit further to see if glove caught up with the ball. the spinners having us for dinner

y0ssar1an22

this will be close.

y0ssar1an22

run out. thats the build up of pressure, trying for a stupid single. 50/4

BionicRasher

Some poor running here last few overs.

wicorthered

This is a complete bottle job. World cup after world cup the batting disintegrates. Those performances against Pakistan look pointless now.

Still look forward to the same line up facing SA in Sept

y0ssar1an22

FFS, things going tits up fast here

wicorthered

Thank God Malan got the new contract....

Gillespy

Nightmare stuff this. Quality cricket all round by Canada to be fair. Theirs to lose now.

y0ssar1an22

59/6. shocking

Shehal

Minimal effort = minimal outcome

Ireland are getting exactly what they deserve so far.

A RR of 4.75…Utterly embarrassing.

y0ssar1an22

it seems like getting test status was pointless given our players can no longer play in england. a worthy sacrifice for playing a test like every 3 years.

Shehal

You got to laugh, they need a RR of 12 and they are just settling for 1s and 2s…at what point are they going too pull their finger out and realise that isnt going to be enough…

y0ssar1an22

if they can keep that up, which is highly unlikely.

Peter File

121/6 with 17 needed off the last over.

This is going to be difficult
