Scotland skipper, Kyle Coetzer, says they were in the game with 270 on the board. Calls it one of the best wickets in the tournament so far. Admits they lost the crucial moments in the game and hence finished second best.
Ireland skipper, William Porterfield, says they had to turn up today and is happy to do that. Admits they were disappointing with the bat against Zimbabwe but did well here today. Mentions it is a pressure game next week and they need to be on top to get the result in their favor.
Man of the Match, Andy Balbirnie, says they wanted to turn it around as quickly as possible. Admits they were disappointed as a batting unit and they did well today. Mentions he tried to get himself in and not be over ambitious at the start. Credits Niall O'Brien for the way he played. States he likes batting at no. 3 and he tries to bat for as long as possible. Ends by saying there is a lot of cricket left and they will take one game at a time.
Ireland got a real scare when the last pair of Mark Watt and Bradley Wheal threatened to take the game away. They smashed a quickfire 38-run stand off just 20 balls to evoke life back in the chase. However, it was Boyd Rankin once again who broke the association and ended with a 4-fer to his name. Stick with us as the presentation is coming up in a bit...
Boyd Rankin gave away 24 runs in his opening two overs and when he was called back, he turned things around by picking up three quick wickets. From 112/3, Scotland were reduced to 133/6. Simi Singh in the middle overs kept the pressure on by drying up the runs. Richie Berrington and Safyaan Sharif then kept the Irish at bay through their 51-run stand but once it was broken it seemed like they will fold up quickly.
Ireland still remain in the contention to qualify. They needed to win this to stay alive and it's been a good all-round show from the Irish. Riding on Andy Balbirnie's ton and half ton from Niall O'Brien they got to a respectable total. When they came out to defend they got an early wicket of Matthew Cross but the Scotland skipper Kyle Coetzer came out with a different mindset. He along with Calum MacLeod churned well as the duo accounted 68 runs for the second wicket before the latter departed.
