    220/8 with a few overs to go,some boundaries would be useful now.

    235 probably the best score we can get to after that wicket fell. Just not going to be anyway competitive. Pity, we were much better and finding the boundary, early in the innings certainly today but still loads of give away wickets.

    237/9 in the end. McCarthy with a six to finish. At least the 59 overs were batted out.

    Tbh, if I was offered batting the full 50 overs and given 237 I probably would have taken it at the start.

    There's a lot of players who show signs, it's positive everyone made somewhat of a start. They can score runs at this level. If we bowl well we might only lose by 3 wickets.

    McCarthy seems handy with the bat. Wouldn't mind seeing him a place higher maybe. McBrine didn't seem confident with the bat at all. His SR was so low not because he was trying to preserve wickets but it's all his talent would allow him. Fair enough, handy spinner, have him in the team but McCarthy seems a better batter.

    Very encouraging start with the ball and in the field and as I’m typing West Indies loose their first wicket... game very much on... 6.2 overs bowled and WI only 17 runs.

    Run rate less then 3. 3 wickets down.... then we go back to instead of building pressure it’s a wide wide.

    Shai Hope averages 52 and Pooran averages 49 so if they get in, Ireland will find it hard to get them out.

    Absolutely massive wicket. Google has probability of either side winning is 50:50. Windies were up at 75% the ball previous.

    Delaney not so disciplined, that delivery three balls ago could have been a no ball AND a wide.

    Might be an idea to temp Pollard, feed his ego. Let him have a few shots, then take some pace off it and get him caught.

    Might not be, this pair could finish it in 12 overs

    From a run rate of 3.4 to now 5.11 in a few overs, beginning to look ominous after a very good start.

    Surely the best ball that Simi Singh has ever bowled.

    Pooran is still looking to see where that ball went.
