England fielding is dire. Another chance goes down.

Ah come on now...that wasn't exactly an easy catch!

The Big Master.

Ireland RR 6.49
Last 5 ovs 53/0 RR 10.60
Required RR 6.78

Certainly doable with 5 wickets - it would be sweat if the lads hold on another 5 overs though!

PS: Have to be realistic though - couple of wickets down would mean the end as well.. Fingers crossed..!!!

JonathanAnon · 02-03-2011 5:05pm

We're beating England at something... I'm on the bandwagon too... Any streams people.. couldnt find one on the streams thread.. I'll search baack through this..

Arrived home a little while ago, looked at the scores and decided not to watch. Boy how things have changed! Come on Ireland!

positron · 02-03-2011 5:11pm

Best thing about Cricket is watching this ticker:

Ireland require another 64 runs with 5 wickets and 59 balls remaining

No

Fantastic innings for O'Brien, pink hair and all.

positron · 02-03-2011 5:13pm

100 of 50 balls is AMAZING in any game, and doing that against England in WorldCup - Wow, respect to the man!!

JonathanAnon · 02-03-2011 5:13pm

gonna be hard for him to keep concentration after that I would think..

Pauleta · 02-03-2011 5:14pm

Amazing Kevin absolutely AMAZING

Mint Sauce · 02-03-2011 5:14pm

The Beebs last update

40 overs Commentary
Ire 263-5 Oh welcome to the Irish party, Alex Cusack! A huge six off Collingwood's first ball, Ireland barely need a run a ball now. They should win this fairly comfortably, it's like Sunday's match all over again. O'Brien hammers Collingwood down the ground for four to go to 97 from 47 balls. He's about to register the fastest World Cup century by some distance, and he's got pink hair!

Oh I'm so looking forward to nights highlights

Was in a shopping centre a little while ago, saw it on tv and thought "no chance". Then heard Sean Moncrieff on the radio, calling out scores of which he had no understanding and I was suddenly scrambling to find a live stream on the web at work

SSK · 02-03-2011 5:14pm

Hero, absolute hero...come on now boys, bring it home

Mint Sauce · 02-03-2011 5:15pm

Theres KOBs hundred!!

jprender · 02-03-2011 5:15pm

Brilliant Stuff !!

I am on the bandwagon !

NUTZZ · 02-03-2011 5:16pm

I have no idea what the scores mean, never watched cricket! Anyone give a very simple line on it?

Hyzepher · 02-03-2011 5:16pm

epic stuff

positron · 02-03-2011 5:16pm

Goner I think.

Speak Now · 02-03-2011 5:17pm

We must have been matched close to ceiling price on betfair before this partnership begun.

kmart6 · 02-03-2011 5:17pm

Unlucky Cusack!!!! Good to sacrifice himself when he realised it was gone!

Bottleopener · 02-03-2011 5:17pm

Oh dear.

What a great partnership though!

d'Oracle · 02-03-2011 5:18pm

Just stay the hell in John Mooney!!!

Ken. · 02-03-2011 5:18pm

Dont think KOB did him any favours on that one.. He looked initially like he was going for the run...

riffmongous · 02-03-2011 5:21pm

if we stay calm we can do this! Pity Cusack didn't get the 50, he deserved one

positron · 02-03-2011 5:21pm

Ireland require another 53 runs with 4 wickets and 48 balls remaining
