An exciting meeting between Ireland and England. It’s not the first time Ireland has overwhelmed an English team. With a little rain, Ireland was 5 runs ahead of the DLS par score after 14.3 overs. At the Melbourne Cricket Ground, there was a massive upset. Earlier, Mark Wood (3/34), Liam Livingstone (3/17), and Sam Curran (2/31) all contributed to England limiting Ireland to 157 runs. Ireland appeared to be in command at one point. Andy Balbirnie (62) and Lorcan Tucker (34) put on an 82-run stand for the second wicket, but once Tector was out, Ireland’s innings went downhill. To win the match, England will need 158 runs.
