Goodnight and CHEERS!
11:35 PM IST: So, rain has had the final say in the proceedings as the first match has been abandoned due to rain. That means Ireland has to go to the Qualifiers while South Africa automatically qualifies for the ICC World Cup 2023.
Let's recap as to what happened in the game till the rain intervened. It was Ireland skipper Andrew Balbirnie who won the toss and elected to field first. Bangladesh lost both their openers early as Litton Das went for a golden duck while skipper Tamim Iqbal scored 14. There were plenty of starts from the Bangladesh batters. Najmul Hossain Shanto scored 44 off 66 balls. Shakib Al Hasan scored 20 off 21 balls before playing a rash shot. Towhid Hridoy scored 27 off 31 balls. Mushfiqur Rahim held the innings together for his 61 off 70 balls. Mehidy Hasan Miraz chipped in with 27 off 34 balls. Taijul Islam scored 14. Shoriful Islam chipped in with a cameo off 16 off 15 balls as Bangladesh ended with 246/9 in 50 overs with the help of 18 extras given by the fielding side. It was a competitive score by the visitors.
Joshua Little was the pick of the bowlers for Ireland as he finished with figures of 3/61 in 10 overs. Mark Adair and Graham Hume bowled well as they picked up a couple of wickets apiece and gave nothing away. Adair had figures of 2/44 in 10 overs. Hume had figures of 2/32 in 10 overs. A wicket apiece for George Dockrell and Curtis Campher as well. Andy McBrine went wicketless.
Chasing a stiff 246 for the win, Ireland lost Paul Stirling for 15 off 10 balls. Skipper Andrew Balbirnie fell cheaply for 5 runs. Doheny struggled for his 17 off 39 balls. Harry Tector was looking good with his 21* off 37 balls. Keeper batter Lorcan Tucker was with him on 2* off 4 balls when the heavens opened up after 16.3 overs. 5 extras were given by the fielding side.
A wicket apiece for Hasan Mahmud, Shoriful Islam, and Taijul Islam as only 4 bowlers were used by Bangladesh before the rain set in for the day. It came and never relented to have the final say in the game.
So, match abandoned due to rain in the end.
