2015 World Cup Result | Ireland beat UAE by 2 wickets in close encounter

90-4 in 24.2 overs

This is Brisbane...

I don't think 300 is a realistic target for any time..

Ireland were not hitting the right lengths at the start. If you bowl the right channels, you're bound to pick up wickets.

Which is why if Pakistan bat first, I don't think they should look to go for 300 against Zimbabwe.

Just look for 260-270 which should be winning total.

I feel Pitch has nothing in it for bowlers, but big square boundaries can be handy for bowlers bowling tight lines...

Against Zimbabwe i think we need atleast 270 to win the game if we bat first and need to restrict them around 240 if we are to chase

 

[hur rizvi]

Misbah didn't support him.

He is older than Misbah

 

[Justcrazy]

Ireland would be comfortable chasing 230 - 240.

 

[hur rizvi]

Pitch is a bit dry, YAsir shah should play against Zimbabwe, Long square boundaries (Around 85 meters) will help him

 

[adnan yasin]

94-4 in 26 overs

Yeah he should play. I hope Chicken hearted misbah thinks the same way

 

[ViciousMachine]

Wohoo, 100!!! Go UAE!!

 

[adnan yasin]

[ViciousMachine]

As I said earlier.... 250 is a good target, if possible

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Go Ireland, destroy UAE :AAG

 

[shane]

This is an important game for Ireland and for Pakistan, and Zimbos too I guess. 125/5 UAE. Get to 230 and you have a chance.

 

[Justcrazy]

UAE struggling here

 

[adnan yasin]

Khurram got out at cruicial time :S

[shane]

Of all the associates the UAE are the only one that look like they do not belong. Which is surprising given the huge subcontinent population there.

 

[ViciousMachine]

Never mind, maybe 200.....?

 

[Justcrazy]

six down

 

[adnan yasin]

Average score batting first in last 3 years is 212

 

[adnan yasin]

Team batting second won 90% of games in last 3 years in a day/night

 

[Justcrazy]

Power Play taken

Unfortunately they have lost two more wickets they would have liked.

 

[Justcrazy]

six from the over.

 

[ViciousMachine]

Good over for UAE. Hopefully build some momentum in pp overs and end strong. Even if they lose, to just push Ireland to bat long will help Pak with NRR chase.

Good comeback by UAE, 245 and game on.

[iafzal]

[Justcrazy]

213 / 6

[cricfan967]

Shaiman Anwar looks a class above most other minnow batsmen, brilliant.

 

[adnan yasin]

superb come back my UAE

 

[adnan yasin]

214-6 in 43 overs

 

[hur rizvi]

Shaiman would have easily made it to Pakistan team, looking at the lack of talent in our current batsmen

 

[adnan yasin]

how many warnings for batsman is allowed ? 2 ???

 

[adnan yasin]

Shaiman would have easily made it to Pakistan team, looking at the lack of talent in our current batsmen

U still think talented cricketers are selected in pakistan side

 

[shane]

Whatever UAE manage to get here, you can add 20-30 on to it because the outfield has been very slow from all the rain. Plus most of the boundaries are enormous.

 

[adnan yasin]

 

[adnan yasin]

watttaaa pull shot ... bang one bounce

 

[iafzal]

Even UAE bowlers may be better than Ireland.

 

[adnan yasin]

Another good over for UAE 11 of the over.

225-6 in 44 overs

 

[adnan yasin]

full toss on the leg side...he was not in a position to put it away for boundary. single taken

 

[adnan yasin]

280????

 

[adnan yasin]

230-6 in 45 overs

so 50 in next 5

 

[Iffitheking]

100 partnership world cup record... great batting...

 

[iafzal]

I think 274 on the cards

 

[ViciousMachine]

Out... huge wicket, but great partnership.

 

[arehaan]

UAE has better tail end batsmen than Pak

 

[Canistani Hero]

Inexperience from UAE..just play out the overs..even 6 an over..gets you another 24 runs..anything close to 260-270 is giving the bowlers something to bowl at

 

[Canistani Hero]

Hope the Shaiman fellow gets his hundred..brilliant innings

 

[adnan yasin]

they scored 16 in last 2 overs.. i.e. 4 runs short.

but good enough

 

[Big Mac]

hahahahahaha, that was ridiculous

 

[cricfan967]

This is hilarious )

 

[adnan yasin]

Inexperience from UAE..just play out the overs..even 6 an over..gets you another 24 runs..anything close to 260-270 is giving the bowlers something to bowl at

Thats been defensive thinking...even if u go for hitting with that much wickets in hand and set batsman is out there u can make 24 runs ... u need more ... this is the time to take risk when u have wickets + set batsman at the crease

 

[cricfan967]

Anwar's perfectly entitled to move around his crease as he pleases, O'Brien is not entitled to stop repeatedly.

 

[Big Mac]

hahaha, this is brilliant

 

[cricfan967]

Anwar you beauty )

 

[adnan yasin]

SLap on Brien face

 

[ViciousMachine]

*** is that crap? Why are umpires only talking to batsman and not bowler? Anybody know the rule. Seems kinda unfair to batsman

 

[cricfan967]

12 off three balls so far, this over is taking ages

 

[adnan yasin]

Kevin needs to think from head.... he lost his cool i guess...

 

[Saffer_XIII]

Lol nice little battle here

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Shaiman Anwar is averaging above 40 in 9 games now.

He is better than entire Pakistan XI batting line up.
