[TheParraboy]

Hopefully a full game can be had up in Brisbane considering the weather of late

Starts on Thursday 2.30pm (AEDT)

Must win for Ireland if they want to play in the quarter finals

Ireland easily

Ireland have to prove they're the real deal by putting these games away.

UAE 46/0 in 10th...

 

[TheParraboy]

Irelands top reminds me of pakistans not that long ago

tubby sort of catch at slip

2/53 in the 14th over

 

[Mr Angry]

2/53 13.1

 

[TheParraboy]

UAE 4/122 31 overs

anything over 200 might be a tricky total for the Irish

Be looking to get them all out before then

 

[Red Bear]

Ended up on 278. Was 6/131 when I got out of the car at about 34-35 overs, though it might be over quick, Anwar ended up making 106.

Hopefully Ireland can chase as well as they did against Windies. I think they comfortably have the best top order of the associates and UAE bowling wasn't brilliant so they're a good shout, but it'll be tough

wow, did UAE really end up getting 278? I too stopped listening around the 6/131 mark, thinking they'd be lucky to get to 200.

Should make for an interesting chase

35-1 with Stirling gone after 10, great start!

 

[Storm13]

Never seen that before lol

really good century - fun to watch...

U.A.E. 278/9 v Ireland 60/1 (15/50 ov)

decent score

 

[Storm13]

Looks like UAE are on course for their first win.

I wouldn't be so sure. Ireland bat pretty deep and should need less than 100 off the final 10 overs which is quite achievable

I had a dinner to go to and it was around the 6/131 mark too. Shocked to see UAE ended up on 278 as well, Looks like they scored 10 runs per over in the last 15 overs with only 4 wickets in hand

Ireland need 86 off 56 -5 wicket in tact

Wilson and Obrien need to score the lion share IMO

 

[Bazal]

Ireland are off their game tonight but still well in this....come on you leprechaun bastards

 

[Storm13]

Ireland's weaknesses have been exposed in this match and it wasn't from a full member.

 

[TheParraboy]

72 from 48 required, still 5 wickets left

Obrien playing a gem of a knock 24* (13)

The official world cup site is terrible for live timing.
