| 1.1 : 1.1: R Topley to P Stirling, FOUR! Welcome into the ODI side of England says Stirling to Topley. Topley starts his spell with a fuller ball around off, Stirling stays put and pushes it down the ground. The ball races away to the fence at long off. |
| 1.3 : 1.3: R Topley to P Stirling, FOUR! Through the cover this time! Good length ball around off, Stirling drives it through the covers and it reaches the fence quickly. |
| 4.4 : 4.4: D Willey to G Delany, OUT! PLUMB! Willey gets the breakthrough and Delany goes for a duck! A good length ball around off and middle, there is just a hint of movement into the batsman as Delany tries to work it on the leg side. He misses to get hit on the pads. Willey and the England players appeal. The umpire raises his finger. Delany goes to his senior partner and thinks for the review but opts against it. The replays roll in and show that Ireland would've lost the review as he was caught |
| 6.1 : 6.1: D Willey to P Stirling, OUT! CAUGHT! Stirling departs and Willey has another one but the credit for this wicket should be equally given to Banton. Fuller and outside off, Stirling throws his bat at it but does not time it too well. It flies off the thick outside edge wide of the man at point. Banton there throws himself to the left side and plucks the ball with both hands. |
| 10.1: D Willey to A Balbirnie, FOUR! First boundary for Balbirnie! He is starting to look good now! Slightly fuller and around off and middle, Balbirnie punches it down the ground powerfully. It races away to the long on fence. |

Balbirnie was starting to look good but has been removed. |
| 15.6 : 15.6: A Rashid to K O'Brien, OUT! STUMPS RATTLED! Fantastic from Rashid. O'Brien is bamboozled. The wrong'un has done the trick for Rashid. Loopy ball around off, O'Brien is drawl forward and he looks to defend but the ball sneaks through and shatters the stumps behind. Ireland slip further as Kevin takes the long walk back to the pavilion. |

| 23.5 : 23.5: A Rashid to H Tector, OUT! CAUGHT! Another one bites the dust. Tector wanted to clear the mid on fielder but he fails to get the desired elevation. A tossed up ball on middle, Tector looks to slam it over mid on but fails to get timing and elevation both. It goes straight to Mahmood's bucket hand. Half the Irish side is back to the hut quite early once again. |

He sees the batsman setting up for sweep and fires it outside off, Tucker goes for the sweep but ends up getting a top edge. It balloons towards short fine leg where Topley accepts the simple chance. Tucker too has to go after getting a start. |
| 31.2 : 31.2: A Rashid to S Singh, FOUR! Swept away! Fullish and around off, Singh gets in front of the stumps and sweeps it firmly. The ball races away to the deep square leg fence. |

A top class knock comes to an end. |
| 49.6 : 49.6: R Topley to A McBrine, OUT! CAUGHT! A wicket on the final ball of the innings. A very good bouncer from Topley. McBrine tries to get away from the firing line but the ball takes the bat and goes behind. Bairstow completes another catch and appeals along with the bowler. The umpire raises the finger and Topley finally has a wicket after a long, long wait. |
| 0.3 : 0.3: C Young to J Roy, OUT! CAUGHT! Worst possible start from England. Roy is out of here for a duck. Brilliant start for the visitors. A fuller ball outside off, Roy reaches out to drive but ends up hitting it uppishly towards extra cover where Delany takes a simple catch. Roy is frustrated as he walks back to the pavilion. |
| 1.4 : 1.4: J Little to J Bairstow, FOUR! Lofted powerfully over cover! Fullish and outside off, Bairstow is in great position to cream it over cover. No chance for anyone to stop. |

| 10.1 : 10.1: C Campher to Tom Banton, FOUR! Streaky boundary for Banton. A little bit of luck for Banton. Fuller length ball just outside off, Banton looks to drive away from his body. He gets an inside edge and the ball goes past the off pole and into the fine leg fence. |

The English batters seem to be willing to finish this quickly and are ending up throwing their wickets away. They need 76 more. |
| 17.5 : 17.5: J Little to M Ali, OUT! CAUGHT! Another one bites the dust. Duck for the skipper, duck for his deputy too.
