    Not ideal, but we should be able to chase that down, fingers crossed!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 259 ✭✭Claregaafan18


    O'Brien with 2 late wickets. Ireland to chase down 236 for the win.

    That looks under par, but way more than it should have been


  • Registered Users Posts: 39,507 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    151 runs, what an innings. Pretty much gave Ireland a target all by himself.


  • Registered Users Posts: 39,507 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    West Indies hit 357/4 in their 50 overs v UAE


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 259 ✭✭Claregaafan18


    Good positive start by Ireland as they chase down 236. 14/0 after 1.4 overs.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 259 ✭✭Claregaafan18


    Stirling on 18. Porterfield on 14. Impressive stuff from the opening partnership. 33/0 after 4 overs.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 259 ✭✭Claregaafan18


    Stirling out for 27. Ireland now 52/1 after 7.3 overs.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,288 ✭✭✭HonalD


    65/1 after 11. rrr 4.38

    Run rate has gone from nearly 7 an over to less than 4 in the 3.3 overs since Stirling's dismissal. :eek::eek::eek:

    Do I need to start worrying?


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,294 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    Only really following progress here, but is this 20/20, or one day format?

    One day internationals. 50 overs a side.

    After 14.3 overs, the run rate is 5.04 and the required run rate is 4.58. No need to panic......yet!

    Jaysus, don't be doing that to me. 14.3 @ 5.04 means we are only 73/1!! We have only added 21 runs in the last 7 overs (From 52/1 after 7.3).

    I would call that time to panic!


  • Registered Users Posts: 891 ✭✭✭Fuzzy Logic


    Way too early to panic about the RR.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,939 ✭✭✭Deise Vu


    We are 94/ 2 after 20 overs. Balbirnie went for 7 in the 16th over after facing 25 balls. Ed Joyce is in now and has 13 off 22 balls. Porterfield still going with a very respectable 45 off 53 balls. Run rate required is almost exactly our run rate so far despite being well ahead with the openers.

    OK, I am officially starting to panic now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,939 ✭✭✭Deise Vu

    Plenty of wickets in hand but the RR since Stirling's dismissal has been a paltry 3.28 (41 off 12.3 Overs).

    A lot of people talking about rr. Lets just win this match first of all and rr and all the permutations that come with it will take care of itself.

    Think they're referring to the required run rate to win the match rather than the avg r/r for the table.

    Current rate is below the required but plenty of wickets in hand. A more difficult task than one would have expected given how the match started


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 11,391 Mod ✭✭✭✭Hammer Archer


    Still plenty of wickets remaining. Zero need to panic yet. PNG were 68/5 at this point in their innings.

    Barring a collapse, looks as though Afghanistan will beat Zimbabwe.


  • Registered Users Posts: 39,507 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Calm down everyone
