20:25 Local Time, 18:25 GMT, 23:55 IST: Ireland clinch a thrilling win over the hosts in the second T20I. With 17 needed off the last three balls, Tim Pringle left the opposition rattled as he smashed the first two out of the park. After three wickets with the ball earlier in the day, he played an absolute blinder with bat in hand to nearly pull off a heist. However, it wasn't to be as Mark Adair nailed the yorker off the final ball. Netherlands have themselves to blame for the way they went about it in the middle overs. 151 wasn't a huge target and they had plenty of wickets in hand around the 10-over mark. But Max O'Dowd and Bas de Leede struggled to get going and allowed the rate to get too high. Eventually, wickets tumbled as a result of the pressure that was built. Pringle tried his best to salvage the situation with his late hitting but fell short by a whisker.

Mark Adair to Tim Pringle, 1 run, Adair goes round the wicket and nails the yorker on leg stump to seal the deal! Nothing Pringle can do about it. He played an absolute blinder to give Netherlands hope, but can only squeeze this delivery back to Adair. A single is all he gets, and Ireland prevail by one run
Mark Adair to Tim Pringle, SIX, Tim Pringle, you beauty! Netherlands are just three away now. Short of length into the body, he pulls hard and just about clears deep midwicket. Can he pull it off?
Mark Adair to Tim Pringle, SIX, Pringle sends it sailing over long-on! Full in the slot on off, he swings hard and absolutely nails it. Comfortably clears the ropes despite being hit into the wind
Some disturbance behind the sightscreen. Bit of a delay
Mark Adair to Doram, 2 wides, goes for a wide yorker outside off, but the umpire reckons it's outside the marker. They've stolen a bye as well. 15 needed off 3 now
Daniel Doram, left handed bat, comes to the crease
Netherlands need 17 off 3 balls. Three sixes will do it. Adair having a chat with Stirling before going to his mark
Mark Adair to van Meekeren, out Caught by Delany!! That's gone high in the air, but it's not long enough. Delany takes it safely at the square leg boundary. Slower short ball, van Meekeren probably gets a thick top-edge going for the pull and holes out. van Meekeren c Delany b Mark Adair 3(4)
Mark Adair to van Meekeren, THATS OUT!! Caught!!
Mark Adair to Tim Pringle, 1 run, just short of the blockhole but it's full enough, not allowing Pringle to get under it. He swipes it to the left of deep midwicket. Probably could've been a second had Pringle not slipped at the bowler's end
Mark Adair to Tim Pringle, 2 runs, excellent yorker on middle and leg, Pringle squeezes it through midwicket and charges back for two. Throws himself into the crease and makes it safely
Adair will probably bowl the final over with 20 to defend. Mid-off and third are up in the ring. Line must be straight
