    One decent partnership would go a long way.

    All over, finished at 85/8

    Bit of a sickener after such a great bowling effort.

    Roll on the ODI

    Fair play, a very good performance again. From the limited amount I have seen on Ireland they seem to struggle to put up big scores with the bat. They are very reliant on bowling teams.

    to beat them once and bowl them /9 under a hundred runs is an excellent showing really.

    Now, in both games the opening batsmen had off days, but the bowlers and fielding can look at that as a very, very good couple of days.

    Big reality check that.

    Hopefully the batters can go out with a point to prove on Sunday

    Very disappointed, feel for the bowlers, shocking batting effort. Porterfield fails yet again when needed, NOB a much better player can't understand his ommission, surely Porterfields place should be under pressure. So near yet so far yet again, reminded me of the Pakistan game.

    Porterfield saying they need to bat for a longer period. Yes, yes you do.

    The only 2 that know how to pace a chase are Wilson and Joyce, the rest bat seemingly without a plan. Sorenson tried to hit every delivery for 6, I know he's a tailender but surely he knows not every ball can go to the boundary! Really can't understand NOB being dropped, could have seen him nudging a 20 ball 30 and winning the game for us!

    I think just Sunday, but the weather is good over there, so shouldn't be an issue. Ireland will be bowled out inside 25 overs.

    Im starting to get very concerned about having Porterfield opening. His form hasnt been great for some time now (going back to the CC season last summer for Warwickshire). Its not helping us having him going cheaply at the top of the order when he is supposed to be one of the batsmen that gives us a start.

    Is there anyone else who could come in and take that opening spot?
