Group B World Cup

2 for 201, Ireland's to lose now but they've batted very sensibly so far. West Indies just look very flat out there, really need to make something happen and right now.

And Ireland get home reasonably comfortably in the end. Big win for them but it's sad to see how far West Indian cricket has fallen.

Classy victory from the Irish. Would be nice to see them try one of their young seamers in Young or Chase in the next few matches.

Loved Brett Lee's tweet at the end of the match. http://www.twitter.com/brettlee_58

Wow big win for Ireland and with India's win (never mind the riots) Ireland might be a chance. I still think India will now loose it's wheels as the only game that mattered is over.

Ireland always win one big one every world cup, West Indies always lose one

Good to see that the irish team have improved.

Great win by Ireland, a super effort from them. Hopefully they can maybe cause another upset or two in the remaining games. A lot of work to do for the West Indies now, they've really fallen from their high in the 70's and 80's.

West Indian cricket has well and truly jumped the shark.

It seriously looked like some of them just didn't give a **** out there today, probably thinking about what T20 franchise contract they have up next.

So true. Mind you they do have loads of other issues going on whilst they're at the world cup.

Pool A match today Kram.

 

[Kram81]

Zimbabwe 2 for 82 off 16 chasing UAE's 286, match looking pretty even atm.

 

[Kram81]

And Zimbabwe get home with 6 wickets down and 2 overs to spare.

Was a good effort from the UAE. I thought they would be the weakest side in the comp but even they show that they can compete.

Notes from West Indies v Pakistan so far...four dropped catches and dismal ground fielding from Pakistan and heaps of injuries on both sides!

Just gone a claimed my tickets for SA/Ind tomorrow, and SL/Bang on Thursday. I remember when I purchased them in November. The dates for the games felt an eternity away.

I purchased my first tickets in March 2014. Do you think I was too keen?
