IRE vs AFG Live Cricket Score
Ireland vs Afghanistan, Live Cricket scoreboard 1st ODI
Batsman | R | B | 4s | 6s | SR |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Paul Stirling | 71 | 94 | 6 | 2 | 75.53 |
c Asghar Afghan b Gulbadin Naib 33.1 OUT! Change of bowling does the trick here. Naib bends his back and bowls it short, Paul looks to go hard at it and goes for the pull. He is late on his shot and it gets a leading edge which just goes high and towards mid on. Asghar Afghan settles under it and takes a comfortable catch. End of another good innings from Stirling, he though would be unhappy that he could not convert it to a triple figure score. 140/4
| |||||
James McCollum | 4 | 10 | 0 | 0 | 40 |
lbw b Dawlat Zadran 4.5 OUT! LBW and gone! A length ball on off, slightly coming in with the angle. McCollum looks to tuck that away on the leg side but misses the ball. He gets rapped in front, the appeal goes up and the finger does too. Height could have been a factor there but nothing can be done now. It is an early breakthrough for Afghanistan, it always looked like coming. 23/1
| |||||
Andy Balbirnie | 4 | 8 | 1 | 0 | 50 |
c Mohammad Shahzad b Dawlat Zadran 8.3 OUT! Caught behind! Brilliant ball and brilliant catch behind the wickets by Shahzad. A length ball outside off, nipping inward. Balbirnie looked to punch this back down the ground but the inward movement means the ball takes the inside edge and goes to the left of the keeper where Mohammad takes a brilliant tumbling catch. The in-form batsman departs and two down now are the hosts and in a spot of bother! 35/2
| |||||
William Porterfield C | 53 | 83 | 6 | 0 | 63.85 |
c Dawlat Zadran b Rashid Khan 32 OUT! The partnership is broken. Just a run short of century stand. Rashid gets his first off the game. Rashid tosses it up outside off, Porterfield looks to sweep it against the spin. He gets a top edge on it which goes to deep square leg. Dawlat Zadran in the deep takes a simple catch. 134/3
| |||||
Kevin O'Brien | 32 | 44 | 4 | 0 | 72.72 |
c Mujeeb Ur Rahman b Aftab Alam 44 OUT! Rashid will be a happy man. He had dropped him earlier but it has not cost them. Shorter on off, Kevin looks to pull but gets a top edge which goes straight to fine leg. Mujeeb takes an easy catch. Not the wicket Ireland would have wanted to lose at this moment. 192/6
| |||||
Gary Wilson Wk | 10 | 12 | 0 | 0 | 83.33 |
run out (Rahmat Shah) 37.2 OUT! Run out! Good length ball on middle, Garry tucks it towards mid-wicket. It is just a gentle tuck so the ball lobs just on the side of the pitch. They take the risk of taking a quick single. Rahmat Shah quickly gets to the ball from mid-wicket and has a shy at the bowler's end. He hits bull's eye and Garry Wilson is short. Brilliant piece of work from Rahmat Shah in the field. 155/5
| |||||
George Dockrell | 14 | 18 | 0 | 0 | 77.77 |
lbw b Rashid Khan 46.5 OUT! Googly does the trick. It is pitching on off, Dockrell looks to defend hoping that it will be a leg spin but the ball spins the other way and he is stuck flush on the pads. Rashid goes up in appeal and the umpire raises the dreaded finger. 205/8
| |||||
Mark Adair | 7 | 10 | 0 | 0 | 70 |
b Aftab Alam 46 OUT! Chopped on. Length ball outside off, Adair looks to cut but he is too close to the ball. He gets an inside edge which goes onto hit the off stump. Ireland need to score at least 40 runs off the last 4 here. 201/7
| |||||
Andy McBrine | 3 | 7 | 0 | 0 | 42.85 |
c Hashmatullah Shahidi b Dawlat Zadran 48 OUT! 3rd wicket for Dawlat Zadran in the game. He bangs one in short. It is on the body, McBrine looks to pull but gets a top edge which goes straight to backward point. Hashmatullah Shahidi takes a dolly there and Ireland lose their 9th. 207/9
| |||||

| |||||
Boyd Rankin | 1 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 50 |
b Aftab Alam 48.5 OUT! Yorker wraps Ireland's innings. It is a brilliant one on off. Too good a ball for a number 11 batsman. He looks to hit it but misses. The ball hits the off stump. Ireland all out for 210. 210/10

Mohammad Shahzad Wk | 2 | 14 | 0 | 0 | 14.28 |
lbw b Tim Murtagh 4.2 OUT! Struck in front and the finger goes up! On a length on middle, Shahzad looks to flick this away but the ball is missed by him. He gets hit in front of the wickets. The appeal is not even completed and the finger went up! This is the early wicket that Ireland so desperately needed. This could be a really tricky chase if Afghanistan lose early wickets. 7/1
| |||||
Hazratullah Zazai | 14 | 40 | 2 | 0 | 35 |
b Mark Adair 12.2 OUT! Bowled 'em. Big wicket for Ireland. They know how dangerous Zazai can be having seen it in the T20I earlier in the year. Adair has got the breakthrough in his very first over. Length ball pitching on middle and off, Zazai looks to pull, but the ball is not short and it goes onto disturb the off stump. The Irish players are happy and why won't they be? 22/3
| |||||
Rahmat Shah | 4 | 12 | 0 | 0 | 33.33 |
c Paul Stirling b Tim Murtagh 8.4 OUT! Caught! Three dots on the trot and Rahmat got under pressure. Murtagh smartly bangs one in short. Rahmat looks to pull it but gets a top edge which goes aerially to mid-wicket. Paul Stirling there takes a dolly. He is not going to drop those and Afghanistan lose their second wicket. 19/2
| |||||
Asghar Afghan | 29 | 51 | 3 | 0 | 56.86 |
lbw b Boyd Rankin 30.2 OUT! Boyd Rankin strikes. Ireland have got the wicket they were looking for. Good length ball pitching on off. It comes in after hitting the deck. Afghan looks to defend but gets beaten by the inward movement. The ball hits him on his knee roll. The Irish players all go up in appeal and the umpire slowly raises his finger. 104/6
| |||||
Hashmatullah Shahidi | 12 | 31 | 1 | 0 | 38.70 |
c Gary Wilson b Mark Adair 19 OUT! Adair gets another one. He once again hits the length hard and bowls it outside off, Shahidi looks play it on the off side but gets a thick outside edge which goes straight to Gary Wilson behind the stumps. He takes a simple catch. Shahidi starts walking and the players are excited. 40/4
| |||||
Mohammad Nabi | 27 | 25 | 2 | 2 | 108 |
c Gary Wilson b Kevin O'Brien 28 OUT! No luck this time and Kevin this time finds the outside edge of Nabi's bat. Good length ball outside off. Nabi goes chasing after it. He plays a lazy drive and after the previous ball missing the outside edge, this time they get it. The 54-run stand is broken and Afghanistan have half their side back in the hut. 94/5
| |||||
Gulbadin Naib C | 20 | 18 | 2 | 0 | 111.11 |
c sub b Mark Adair 35.2 OUT! That could be the final nail in the Afghanistan coffin. Naib holes out at long on trying to smash his way to a win. A length ball on off, Gulbadin wants to hit a maximum over the bowler's head but fails to get enough power on that ball as it goes off the inside. It goes high and the substitute fielder, Kane there settles under the ball and takes a very good, calm catch! Just one away now from the win are Ireland! 138/9
| |||||
Rashid Khan | 16 | 11 | 0 | 2 | 145.45 |
c William Porterfield b Boyd Rankin 32.1 OUT! The seventh one goes down! Afghanistan are now in a huge spot of bother. Rashid Khan departs now. A short ball outside off, Rashid looks to hit it over mid off but fails to time it. It goes straight to William Porterfield at mid off who makes no mistake. Ireland will now feel really in the driver's seat! Gulbadin Naib would be the only one who can really take the game away from them now onward. 120/7
| |||||
Dawlat Zadran | 3 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
c Gary Wilson b Boyd Rankin 32.4 OUT! Third wicket for Rankin! The wheels are coming off really hard here for the visitors. A short length ball on middle, Zadran looks to pull this but gets a top edge. The ball lobs towards the keeper, Gary Wilson who takes the simplest of catches. This has been one big turnaround from the hosts! 120/8

Mujeeb Ur Rahman | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
c & b Mark Adair 35.4 OUT! Caught and bowled! It is all over here! IRELAND WIN BY 72 RUNS!!! A remarkable catch to bring the game to an end. A fuller ball on middle, Mujeeb hits the ball back to the bowler who gets his arm up in front of his face and holds onto the sharp return catch. Mujeeb cannot believe this. Meanwhile, Adair picks up his 4th wicket! We cannot believe this, Afghanistan have blown up a chase of 210 and fallen to a demoralizing loss. 138/10
