IRE vs NIG Live Cricket Score

1.5 OUT! Chopped on! Landed outside off, Ajekun looks to cut but gets a bottom edge which knocks the off stump out of the ground! Early strike for Ireland. 5/1

3.4 OUT! RUN OUT! Total mix-up. Around middle, Runsewe paddles it towards backward square leg. Now, fine leg is deep and the batsmen think that a second is on. But it isn't. George Dockrell comes charging in from fine leg and returns a sharp throw to the keeper who whips the bails off. Runsewe dives in but is late. 13/2

4.3 OUT! Caught behind! Nigeria are in a sorry state now. Landed outside off, Gim looks to drive this on the up but the ball moves away, takes the outside edge and the keeper does the rest. 13/3

10.3 OUT! BOWLED! A length ball outside off, Onwuzulike looks to just play a heave but there is no feet movement. The ball stays a touch low, takes the inside edge and shatters the woodwork behind. Half the side down. 34/5

7.4 OUT! Caught! A catching drill. Full and around middle, Onikoyi gets down to paddle but all he musters is a simple scoop to Paul Stirling at short fine leg. This is just going from bad to worse. Ireland are not even celebrating. Nigeria are 24/4! 24/4

16.2 OUT! BOWLED! Outfoxed by the lack of pace. A length ball, in line of the stumps, Okpe backs away again, attempting a similar shot to the previous one, aiming to go over the bowler but goes a touch too early. Misses as the ball comes very slowly, goes past the bat and hits the middle stump. End of a decent looking partnership, worth 24. 58/6

17.1 OUT! BOWLED! Don't think one can bowl a better yorker than that. Perfectly angled, targetting the leg stump, Oyede is beaten by the swing, cannot get his bat down in time, it is too quick for him. The leg stump takes a cartwheel. 59/7

18.2 OUT! BOWLED! The off stump takes a beating. That is the fifth batsman getting bowled today! Full and around off, Okpe looks to defend but the ball straightens a touch, beats the outside edge and sends the off stump flying. Third wicket for Young. 62/8

18.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Wicket number 4 for Young and second wicket in the space of 3 balls! A length ball outside off, Adewoye looks to heave it to the off side but gets a top edge. It has gone nowhere as George Dockrell at short extra cover comes running in and takes it around his face. Can Young get a 5-fer? 62/9

2.3 OUT! EDGED AND CAUGHT THIS TIME! Luck smiles on Isaac Okpe at last. The first two balls resulted in two edges, but neither went to hand. This one does. Full and outside off, Stirling looks to drive hard but the ball swings away, takes the outside edge and the keeper, Ademola Onikoyi, does the rest. Something to smile, for Nigeria. 22/1

5.2 OUT! BOWLED! Another wicket for Nigeria. Full and outside off, O'Brien looks to drive but the ball spins in, goes between bat and pad and shatters the stumps. 54/2
