Ireland beat USA by 6 wickets
Right then, that is it from this one-sided affair where Ireland absolutely demolishes the USA to add another win to their bag. However, there is another game going on in the Super Six stage where Sri Lanka and Netherlands are battling it out for two crucial points. You can just switch tabs and catch all the action of that game.
Craig Young is the player of the match for his spell of 3 for 35 from his 7 overs. He says that he felt frustrated not to be picked early on but feels good to be back and help to team win. Adds that it has been a difficult past month or so physically for him but he is fi now and really happy to be back. Also adds that winnings the last game was like letting the monkey of the hat and they will continue playing in this manner now.
Andy Balbirnie the skipper of Ireland says that they had a disappointing week but they got to compete and win what was ahead of them. Adds that the four-year cycle is really important for a side like theirs and they are gutted to miss out on such a huge tournament. Adds that Paul Stirling still has the drive in him and he wouldn't be surprised to see him in another world cup. Closes by saying that Craig Young coming in and showing up with what exactly he offers is a captains dream and he is delighted with the game today.
Monank Patel the skipper of the USA says it is not at all easy to come here and get a result despite playing out heart out. Adds that he felt the team was 40-50 runs short of the target they wanted. Also adds that it is important for the side to learn from such a game and they will be looking to play an impressive brand of cricket in the last game for them. Mentions that Nosthush Kenjige was good and it feels brilliant to have a player like this who can stand up in a difficult situation.
Stay tuned for the presentation...
USA were poor throughout. They were under-par with the bat earlier on and the bowling wasn't all that great either. Yes, they did not have enough runs on the board but they would have wanted the Irish to work hard for their runs which was not the case.
Ireland has breezed passed the challenge of the USA by 6 wickets. Quite an easy win in the end for the Irish. It was never in doubt to be honest after their excellent bowling performance. In reply, the openers got their side off to a brilliant start. Stirling scored a breezy half-ton. Both fell but the batters came in and chased it down without breaking a sweat.
