How much of this is down to Ireland being bad, and how much down to Afghanistan being good. Are they likely to spring any surprises at the world cup?

It would be great to have another competitive cricket nation, it just would have been nice if it could have been Ireland!

KevIRL · 28-02-2019 11:26am

Nice partnership this between Stirling and Dockrell. 70 runs off it and Ireland 139/6 with 5 overs left

KevIRL · 28-02-2019 11:28am

Jinxed it. Dockrell out for 37.

KevIRL · 28-02-2019 11:34am

McCarthy out too

KevIRL · 28-02-2019 11:36am

Murtagh gone too.

KevIRL · 28-02-2019 11:38am

Three wickets in nine balls for one run..

KevIRL · 28-02-2019 11:48am

Stirling out for 89. He was just five balls away from carrying his bat. Superb knock all the same

Ireland 161 all out.

BarryD2 · 28-02-2019 12:53pm

Hmm.. Afghan openers cantering along, don't seem to be in any great difficulty.

KevIRL · 28-02-2019 1:24pm

Zazai gone. 44/1 after 13. Afganistan slightly ahead of the required rate but plenty of wickets in hand of course

BarryD2 · 28-02-2019 3:29pm

Easy enough for AFG. Watched about 20 overs of their innings and wouldn't need the fingers of one hand to count the number of times the ball beat the bat. Ah well, that's how it goes. Even the Irish lads were smiling at the end.

I watched a bit earlier today. Doesn't look like there was anybody in the stadium at all - any idea what sort of attendance they've had so far in tour?

KevIRL · 02-03-2019 8:18am

Afghanistan win the toss and will bat first in second ODI.

Ireland debut for James Cameron-Dow

KevIRL · 02-03-2019 8:35am

Zazai hits a six second ball. Could be another rough day for the bowlers

KevIRL · 02-03-2019 8:57am

37/0 after 7 and zazai is flying with 35 off 22

KevIRL · 02-03-2019 9:10am

56/0 after 10

KevIRL · 02-03-2019 9:23am

18 runs off cameron Dow's first over. Zazai having a field day and is 61 off 35 including five 6s.

76/0 after 12

KevIRL · 02-03-2019 9:32am

90/0 15

BarryD2 · 02-03-2019 9:33am

Sizing up to be another hard day alright. Our lads must be wishing for the test to come ASAP and on the plane home!

KevIRL · 02-03-2019 9:35am

Mcbrine gets zazai!

KevIRL · 02-03-2019 9:45am

KevIRL · 02-03-2019 10:40am

159/2 32

BarryD2 · 02-03-2019 11:03am

Could be looking at 300 here, depending on how we bowl.. TBH can't see us getting past 200. Maybe they'll get complacent

KevIRL · 02-03-2019 11:19am

212/4 40
