Man of the Match
Andy Balbirnie
Commentry
That's it from this game then! Action from this trip series continues on Friday as the Dutch will be in action against the Irish. That game will begin at 1430 IST (0900 GMT). Till then, goodbye and take care.
Andy Balbirnie has been given the MAN OF THE MATCH AWARD!
Scotland just could not produce with the ball in this game! Also, have to say, the wicket got a lot easier to bat on! There was not a lot of movement and the ball came onto the bat nicely. Still though credit to them to get it down to the last over.
Quite a comfortable win in the end! Yes, it did go to the last over, there did seem a little bit of panic amongst the Irish batters towards the end but it was quite comfortable throughout. The openers got them off to a very good start before Stirling fell. Andy Balbirnie continued, and he got good support from Lorcan Tucker! Both scored half tons and that stand more or less killed the game. There were wickets towards the end but Ireland managed to keep their calm and get over the line.

Direct hit and it would have been close. George Dockrell makes it and that is the winning run! On middle, this is pushed to mid on and the batters go for it. The fielder has a shy at the bowler's end but misses. IRELAND WIN BY 5 WICKETS!

OUT! RUN OUT! Just short probably! Around off, George Dockrell makes room and plays it towards point. They go for one. The fielder there picks it up and hits the stumps at the keeper's end. Tucker is short.

On off, this is pushed through covers for two. That will release a little bit of pressure that was building.

OUT! TIMBER! Cleans him up! Around off, this lands and jags back in. Curtis Campher looks to flick but misses and the stumps are hit. Ireland yet again messing up towards the end. We saw that happen with the ball against the Dutch and now with the bat. Will they still get over the line like last time?
