Andrew Balbirnie was adjudged Player of the match for his knock. Well, this is all from this game. But mind you, it’s still raining in Melbourne and the clash between New Zealand and Afghanistan is under dark clouds (literally). Let’s hope that we get a full game when those two sides take the field

This is another massive upset in the tournament. England have lost to Ireland by 5 runs (D/l Method). They had started off the tournament on a positive note after a win against Afghanistan but have suffered a defeat today. The English team will have to go back to the drawing board and rejig their strategies. The batting is becoming a concern for them. They struggled against Afghanistan and somehow went over the line and they have struggled against Ireland too. JOY for Ireland. They have got two crucial points

Ireland were 103/2 at one stage and then lost wickets at regular intervals to eventually get bowled out. England on the other side, would be keeping a close watch on the NRR as well. They will look to wrap this one with a good margin

And the pattern continues. A boundary followed by a wicket. Curtis Campher had got a boundary on the previous one and he just needed to let this carry to the wicket-keeper. Wood bowled that back of the length, going down the leg, the batter tried to pull it but only managed to get some bat on it and the rest was done by Buttler behind the stumps

Balbirnie had been cautious against the spinners and this was probably the first time he took it on and has been caught in the deep. Livingstone bit of a quicker delivery from Livingstone, bowled fuller and outside off as the batter goes for the slog sweep and is caught by Hales at backward square leg for 62 off 47

Heartbreaking for Lorcan Tucker 💔

Andrew Balbirnie nails a straight drive, Adil Rashid gets a finger on it, and the non-striker is out of his ground.

Still, a special partnership 👏

Andrew Balbirnie guides one to the leg side, gets a single and brings up a well-deserved 50 in 40 deliveries. He has been in some good form, just what Ireland wanted. Has been cautious against the spinners but has been taking on the pacers with precision

ENG vs IRE LIVE SCORE
What a disastrous way to get dismissed. Lorcan Tucker is gone for 34 off 27. Andrew Balbirnie just pushed that final delivery of the over straight back to the bowler and Rashid put in the dive to stop the ball, got some fingers on it as the ball hit the stumps at the non-striker’s end. Tucker was way out of his crease. Ireland lose two now

Here’s the first one for England. Mark Wood had troubled Stirling with that extra bit of bounce. The batter did get a six previously but not this time as he throws his bat on to that short one, outside off but only manages to give a catch to Sam Curran stationed around third man region. He is a standing a bit fine. Stirling goes for 14 off 8
