1.1
Arshdeep Singh to Andy Balbirnie, FOUR! Nicely timed! Full again, swinging into the pads, Andy Balbirnie flicks this one away just in front of mid-wicket, a bit uppishly as well but the ball runs away to the fence.

Arshdeep Singh to Andy Balbirnie, FOUR! Put away with disdain! Length ball outside off, this one goes on with the angle, Andy Balbirnie throws his hands at it and hammers it away in front of point for another boundary.

2.3
Prasidh Krishna to Paul Stirling, OUT! CAUGHT! Well taken in the end and the Irish skipper departs for a duck! Prasidh Krishna bangs this one in a bit over middle and gets it to rise up a bit more because of his height. Paul Stirling looks to get going with a boundary and takes on the pull. Stirling though is hurried and gets a top edge toward short fine leg. The keeper runs back toward it and Arshdeep Singh also comes in from the deep. They manage to communicate well and Singh is the one who takes it.

2.6
Prasidh Krishna to Lorcan Tucker, OUT! CAUGHT! This time the fielders do collide but the catch is held. Prasidh Krishna bowls it back of a length over the stumps and at a good pace at it. Lorcan Tucker looks to pull this one over mid on but mistimes it badly toward wide mid on. Tnhe fielders from mid on and mid-wicket move toward the ball but it is Ruturaj Gaikwad from mid-wicket who grabs the catch and runs into Shivam Dube. Luckily for them, they escape without any damage.

5.1
Ravi Bishnoi to Harry Tector, FOUR! A fortunate boundary but Harry Tector will take it. Nicely floated up, full and on middle, turning in. Tector looks to slog it with the turn but gets an inside edge past the stumps and the ball runs away into the fine leg fence.

5.2
Ravi Bishnoi to Harry Tector, OUT! TIMBER! Right on the money from Ravi Bishnoi and Harry Tector plays all over it. Another googly that is looped up on off and middle and this is very full. Tector picks the googly well and looks to flick it leg side but the ball sneaks under his willow and goes on to crash into the stumps. Ireland in a spot of bother now.

7.6
Ravi Bishnoi to Curtis Campher, SIX! BANG! Tossed up on the stumps, Curtis Campher gets down on one knee and gets under it well before smoking the slog-sweep well over the mid-wicket fence for a biggie. Ireland need a lot more of that.

9.6
Ravi Bishnoi to Curtis Campher, OUT! CAUGHT! Curtis Campher falls now and right on the halfway mark, Ireland lose their fourth wicket. Ravi Bishnoi just keeps bowling the wrong'uns and this time he bowls it a touch short, turning it onto middle and leg. Campher gets across a bit and looks to reverse sweep it over point but ends up chipping it to the right of backward point where Shivam Dube takes a simple catch.

Prasidh Krishna to Andy Balbirnie, OUT! RUN OUT! Uh oh, just when a partnership was brewing for Ireland, they lose George Dockrell! Rolls his fingers over the ball and bowls it full, on off, Andy Balbirnie slices it wide of deep point. The first run is completed and the batters think of a second. Andy Balbirnie sets off but sends Dockrell back halfway through. The throw comes in from the deep and Sanju Samson does the rest by taking the bails off. The replays confirm that Dockrell is short of his crease when the bails were taken off.

15.3
Arshdeep Singh to Andy Balbirnie, SIX! Into the wicket and at the batter, Andy Balbirnie gets into a great position and picks the bones out of it. Dispatches it over deep mid-wicket for a biggie.

15.4
Arshdeep Singh to Andy Balbirnie, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Arshdeep Singh has the last laugh and Ireland lose Andy Balbirnie now! Goes full and wide outside off, Andy Balbirnie is made to reach out to go through the off side. Does not manage to get on the end of it and only manages to get an outside edge which is pouched safely behind the wicket by Sanju Samson. Ireland are now 6 down.

16.4
Jasprit Bumrah to Barry McCarthy, OUT! CAUGHT! Jasprit Bumrah joins in on the fun now and Ireland are slowly falling apart! Takes pace off and delivers it on a good length, on off, Barry McCarthy stays till and tries to swing it across the line. Gets it off the bottom part of the bat and holes out to deep mid-wicket. Ravi Bishnoi sprints and slides forward and completes the catch with ease.

Arshdeep Singh to Mark Adair, SIX! Clean as a whistle! In the slot, angling in, on middle and leg, Mark Adair clears his front leg and whacks it over deep mid-wicket for a biggie.

Prasidh Krishna to Mark Adair, SIX MORE! Slower delivery again, six again! Prasidh Krishna goes full this time and rolls his fingers over the ball, Mark Adair manages to get underneath and thumps it towards the sight screen for six more runs.

19.4
Jasprit Bumrah to Mark Adair, OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Jasprit Bumrah is producing a death overs masterclass here! Bowls this slightly on a good length, on middle and leg, Mark Adair swipes across the line again but makes contact this time. The connection is nowhere close to perfection and he ends up spooning the simplest of catches to Tilak Varma at deep mid-wicket.
