...Presentation...

As told earlier, Ireland were well below the par score. Earlier they completely lost the momentum once Lorcan Tucker fell. However, they were in a good position before that scoring 10 an over or so but couldn't finish the innings they would have hoped for. The Irish bowlers tried their best but they never looked like could turn the tides in their favour. An easy and comfortable couple of games for Pakistan to seal the series.

It was not a big surprise to see Pakistan cruise through so comfortably. Ireland were well under-par on this kind of pitch and Pakistan made a mockery of the chase. They lost Saim Ayub early on but the two pillars of Pakistan cricket, Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan stitched a stand of 139 runs to seal the game. The latter was the aggressor early on but Babar Azam too joined him. Both hit few lusty blows and scored fifties respectively. They both fell but till then the job was well and truly done.
