That is it from the One-off ODI! England avoided the upset, yes they were missing many of their top stars but still, had they lost, it would have been a morale-deflating one. Ireland's performance on the other hand, should give them a lot of confidence. They would surely want to carry this forward into the Tri-series coming up for them. They play their first game against West Indies on Sunday at 1045 local (0945 GMT). England, on the flip side, are playing Pakistan on the same day but in a T20I game. That match will be played in Cardiff at 1430 local (1330 GMT). Join in for those two. Till then, take care and goodbye!

Victorious England skipper, Eoin Morgan tells us that they felt challenged at certain stages of the game. He informs that the wicket was tough to bat on. Mentions that they bowled really well. He also admits that 3-4 of the English batsmen batted poorly. Praises Ben Foakes who made 2 crucial partnerships which took them over the line. Says that Jofra Archer had a good start to his international career and that it was a good opportunity to bowl some overs. Regarding the T20 coming up, the England captain says that the Kiara oval been a great venue for them and that he looks forward to Sunday afternoon, expecting a great atmosphere.

Ireland skipper, William Porterfield says that they could have had a few more runs there. Feels they needed a few more partnerships, but overall with 3 debutants playing, they did really well. He reserves praise for Joshua Little and mentions he bowled with a lot of heart, bringing what he is known for in the domestic circuit. Signs off by saying that they have to really buck up and perform in the next 15-20 days where they could be playing 7 ODIs!

Man of the Match, Ben Foakes says that the conditions were tricky and they had to stick it in on a slow pitch. The key was to stay till the end and eventually they got a few bad balls that took them over the line.

Ireland's bowling was commendable, actually, it was another debutant who shone, Joshua Little, he bowled with pace and finished with a 4-fer. He was well-supported by Murtagh but no other bowler looked threatening. They would also rue the missed review they did not take against Foakes when England needed around 60 but all-in-all they can be happy with their effort. The presentation to follow...

England had a decent start to the game as their openers added 34 for the first wicket. However, once James fell, wickets started to fall in quick succession. England soon found themselves reeling at 66 for 5. Ireland would have surely sensed a victory there but England's insane depth in the batting came to their rescue. Ben Foakes along with the all-rounders took them over the line. First with Willey, added a handy stand and then came the match-winning stand with Curran of 98. The two played really sensible, showed a lot of maturity in the partnership. The debutant scored his maiden half ton and Tom Curran finished on an unbeaten 47.

What an excellent game we have witnessed. In the end, it ends as everyone expected it to with England coming out on top but credit to Ireland for the way they have fought. Especially after being bundled out for 198. Not many thought this is going to be a close game but the second half had a script of its own.

42.1

Joshua Little To Tom Curran

FOUR AND IT IS A NO BALL! England have sealed the deal in style in the end! A short ball and around middle, TC goes back and pulls it hard through mid-wicket and the ball races away. He has also overstepped so an extra run which means, 5 and England needed 5. SO THEY WIN ONLY ODI BY 4 WICKETS!

41.5

Mark Adair To Tom Curran

Short delivery on middle, Tom pulls it over mid-wicket. The batsmen get two runs.

41.4

Mark Adair To Ben Foakes

Full and outside off, Foakes drives it towards point for a run.

41.3

Mark Adair To Ben Foakes

On a good length and outside off, Foakes looks to drive but gets an outside edge. It goes towards third man. The batsmen get two runs.

41.2

Mark Adair To Tom Curran

OUT! NO DROPPED! However, I do not think, it would have made a difference. Curran who is in a hurry to finish this, dances down the track. Adair bangs it short and outside off. Tom slaps it hard but uppishly towards sweeper cover. Tucker there gets two hands to it but spills it. Adair is not a happy man as he is robbed of his first ODI wicket. The batters take a run.

41.1

Mark Adair To Tom Curran

FOUR! Excellent shot from Tom Curran. Full toss on leg, Curran smashes it over mid-wicket for a boundary. England need just 12 runs to win the match.

Joshua Little To Tom Curran

Short outside off, flayed away for a single to deep cover for a run. 16 needed now in the last 4 overs.

40.5

Joshua Little To Tom Curran

Fuller outside off, driven along the ground to mid off for a single by Curran.

40.4

Joshua Little To Tom Curran

Another one from around the wicket, short of a length on middle. Curran looks to pull it away but fails to put any bat on it.

40.3

Joshua Little To Ben Foakes

On a length on top of off from around the wicket, pushed towards long on for a run by a single.

40.2

Mark Adair To Ben Foakes

Another single as this is eased down to long on. 8 from this over as well, it is now England's game to lose.

39.5

Mark Adair To Tom Curran

On the shorter side again and outside off, Curran cuts it through point for a single.

39.4

Mark Adair To Ben Foakes

50 for Foakes on debut! Excellent innings and a very, very important one. England were reeling at once but he has stepped up to the occasion and is now playing a match-winning knock. His job is not done as of now though. He gets there by pushing this through covers and takes a single.

39.3

Mark Adair To Ben Foakes

Overthrows! Bonus runs, something Ireland can't afford at the moment. Full and on off, Foakes drives it crisply towards the bowler. The ball hits his boot and then rolls towards mid off. They take one.The fielder has a needless shy at the non-striker's end but misses. No one backing up and an extra run is taken.

39.2

Mark Adair To Tom Curran

Short and outside off, Curran slaps it hard but straight to sweeper cover for a single.

39.1

Mark Adair To Tom Curran

Mistimed but no damage done! Short and it keeps rising on the batsman. Curran fails to get on top of the bounce but still hits it well enough to get it over mid-wicket. Collects two.

He shows good maturity as he works it through square leg and takes one. 12 from the over and England now only need 32 in 36.

38.5

Joshua Little To Tom Curran

FOUR! Second boundary in the over! This time by Curran. Straight down the ground. It is on a length and outside off, TC slaps it through mid off and it races away.

38.5

Joshua Little To Tom Curran

WIDE! This is probably a harsh call! Short and outside off, Curran lets it be and it has been wided.

38.4

Joshua Little To Ben Foakes

Now a single, sensible batting! This is guided through point for a single.
