Player of the Match

Michael Bracewell

42(40)&2/26(10)

That's all we have from this game. This series is done and dusted in favour of New Zealand but there is still one game to go. Do join us on Friday, 15th July 2022, for the third ODI in Dublin. The match will begin at 3.15 pm IST (9.45 am GMT) but you can join us in advance for the build-up. Until then, it's goodbye and cheers!

Tom Latham, the skipper of New Zealand, says that he is happy with the performance and feels that winning the toss was important. Praises his bowlers for providing such a fantastic start and getting a couple of early wickets to set the tone. Also adds that the spinners were brilliant. He admits that it was a shaky start from their batters but they gradually got the grip of the game and managed to build some partnerships which ultimately helped them to get over the finish line. Tells that the way Finn Allen played was a big positive and Michael Bracewell once again showed his composure to finish things off. Hopes that he continues his good form.

The Irish skipper, Andy Balbirnie says that the pitch was tricky with the ball nipping around and then turning as well. Adds that they did well afterwards but it wasn't enough. Mentions they bowled well but will look to improve as well. Adds that George Dockrell batted beautifully and can hit the ball really well and Andy McBrine was also solid at the top. Tells that they could be better in the field and there were some positives for them but they have to improve.

Michael Bracewell is picked for the Player of the Match award. 10-1-26-2 with the ball and an unbeaten 42 runs with the bat - It was an incredible all-round show by him. He says that the bowlers did an excellent job at the start and bowling three maidens set the tone for the game. Praises Jacob Duffy for his debut. Shares that the pitch was offering spin and they used the conditions well. He is happy with the way they restricted Ireland to a low score. He sounds satisfied to take New Zealand over the line.

Stay tuned for the presentation...

Earlier in the match, Tom Latham won a crucial toss and decided to bowl under overcast conditions. The Irish batters found it tough to deal with the seaming deliveries and soon were found struggling. It was George Dockrell's knock and the late cameo from Mark Adair that handed them runs on the board to fight with, but 216 was never going to be enough against a team like New Zealand. In hindsight, the 12 balls that Ireland wasted could have made the difference.

It was a shocking start for New Zealand as they lost two wickets off the first two balls of the chase. Mark Adair was exceptional in his first few overs and pegged the Kiwis back fairly early. The going was tough, but Finn Allen and Tom Latham applied themselves to soak all the pressure. The former cut loose after that to steal the momentum in New Zealand's favour. This pair put together a century stand to corner the Irish team. Latham dropped into the role of the anchor and the likes of Henry Nicholls and Glenn Phillips also added vital runs.

Slight hiccup for the Black Caps, but eventually, they ended up securing an unassailable lead in the series, along with the crucial Super League points. Michael Bracewell once again played a mature knock and made sure that New Zealand cross the line.

FIVE WIDES! A wild delivery from Little, a gift really. Little tries to bowl a yorker at the toes but the ball slips out of his hands and end up being a high full toss, way down the leg side.

APPEAL! Not given. Josh Little goes fuller and angles it in from around off. Michael Bracewell shuffles across looks to punch it back past the bowler but misses and the ball flicks the pads on its way to the keeper. Huge appeal from the bowler but it is turned down! Not sure whether they are claiming a catch or going up for lbw but it is being checked. UltraEdge is checked first and there is a flat line as the ball passes the bat and the Ball Tracking shows that the impact is well outside off.

Drinks break. It's been a great recovery from New Zealand after losing two wickets in the blink of an eye.

They need wickets in a cluster to make a strong back. 116 needed more off 198 balls as Henry Nicholls walks in next.

Mark Adair To Will Young OUT!

OUT! SOUND OF TIMBER! Mark Adair is on fire, he has two in two. This time it's not a yorker but very full around off. Will Young tries to defend without any footwork but misses as the ball nips back in to beat the inside edge. The stumps are shattered. The crowd is going wild. Adair on a hat-trick...

Will Young is in at number 3.

Mark Adair To Martin Guptill OUT!

OUT! BOWLED! Martin Guptill bags a golden duck. What a start from Mark Adair! He nails his yorker to perfection. Speeds in from over the wicket, eyes the blockhole straight away and attempts to catch the batter unaware. Martin Guptill's feet go nowhere, his bat comes down late and the ball goes behind to floor the stumps. Mark Adair jumps in delight!
