IRE VS NZ - 5th Match, New Zealand and Bangladesh in Ireland Tri-Series, 2017

The Village at Dublin is under covers. It's time for us take cover as well. There's one more match left in the series - Bangladesh vs New Zealand on Wednesday. Do join us then. Until next time, goodbye from all of us down here.

Tom Latham: A pretty clinical performance from us. We wanted to improve from our previous games. One of our best performances as a team. Even I wanted to bowl, but it (the track) didn't do as much as we both (him and Porterfield) thought. It's always nice to contribute in a winning cause. Really pleasing. It has obviously been a great preparation. One more game is left, playing cricket is crucial.

Tom Latham is Man of the Match

William Porterfield: We bowled well in patches. We were a little bit off. The young lads (bowlers) haven't got their margins. All credit to Simi Singh, he stepped up in just his second game and bowled really well. what he did with the ball is pleasing. We have to get our partnerships going at the top. That's something we need to address.

New Zealand win the series, Bangladesh will be placed second, followed by Ireland. With one match to go, all the places are sealed. Chasing a mammoth score, Ireland were never in the chase. Paul Stirling, who has been off-color this series fell cheaply again. A 50+ stand between the most experienced duo - Ed Joyce and Porterfield - was the only good thing that took place as far as the home team are concerned. Once the Irish skipper was scalped by Kuggeleijn, it was a one-way traffic. Each and every bowler chipped in. Ireland collapsed and succumbed under pressure.

Ish Sodhi to Chase, out Caught by Milne!! In the air and taken! It's over. New Zealand win by 190 runs. This was on the cards. With both batsmen playing the big shots, it was just a matter of time before someone perishes. It's Chase who is dismissed. Tossed up delivery on middle and leg, Chase crouches low and swings hard across the line. Doesn't get enough timber and Milne at deep square leg gathers it with ease. Chase c Milne b Ish Sodhi 14(11) [6s-1]
