    Campher out second last ball for 120. He hit 3 boundaries in a row before that ball though

    286 to defend.

    Congratulations to Campher and Dockrell for rescuing us

    Very strange for Scotland to have their best bowler send down just 7 overs out of the permitted 10.

    Another bad toss to lose similar to Oman and it was an horrific start.

    Campher the scourge of Scotland once again played a terrific innings and has given Ireland a score. Dockrell as well struggled for long periods but got through to a score. I don't think there is much in that pitch at all for the bowlers and it would take something miraculous for Ireland to win.

    Great recovery for sure, we were hanging by a thread but turned into a rope. Scotland show they are just as good/bad as us - take your pick!

    Looked like a good LBW shout for me for Little, particularly on the replay. Unlucky.

    Adair does the get the LBW decision which looked less out than the Little one.

    This pitch is a cracker, nothing in it for the bowlers. Hard to see how Ireland can do this.

    Loose shot from McMullen and Ireland get a crucial second wicket. 56/2.

    Berrington edges it on to his own stumps. Terrific bowling by this Irish side on a benign pitch.

    148/6 with 17 overs left. Run rate required now at over 8 runs an over.

    Just have to keep their heads here and keep things tight and wait for the mistakes.

    Wild swing from Greaves and it's a simple catch for McBrine.

    100 ODI Wickets for George Dockrell.

    Going to go down to the wire I think. These two are batting very, very well.

    Adair bowled a decent over there but probably not enough.

    All talk again, absolute bottle job, great innings from Leask , well supported by Watt, Josh Little could come and go quickly, bowls a lot of tripe, and the odd wicket taking ball, but good batsmen will line him up easily, this is a very poor side led by a man who is not up to it
