Have this one the radio and Ireland are holding England quite well in the first Innings, 75 for 4 in the 14th of 20 overs. This could be another famous victory if things keep going this wayapplause

Halfway through the big match and England finished up on 120 for 8 wickets off their allotted 20 overs. Eoin Morgan was the man who held the England batting together as they were very wobbly throughout and it augers well for the Irish as they take to the wicket in a few minutes time for what may well be a famous victory if it comes trueireland

Ireland opened their innings now; it's William Porterfield facing the bowling of Breslin. Ireland require 121 to win with a run rate of 6.0 needed to win.

The rain begins to fall already with just 8 balls gone in the Irish innings. Let's see how long this lasts before Duckworth and Lewis decide a winner.

First wickets down; Stirling's been caught without troubling the scorebook; it's 4 for the loss of one with two overs gone.

And the rain falls again and they are off.

Duckworth Lewis only comes into play after a minimum of five completed overs which means that a revised target will be made for Ireland to play to.

Still off for rain but sky is clearing. If they do come back then it will be a reduced target which is how England lost last night so come on the sun!

Are you sure? I thought Duckworth Lewis is only applied after the fifth over in 20 20.
