Ireland 49/7, it's not an easy pitch but it's such bad batting

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Scrambled to 97 all out, which is more than it looked like they'd get at 50/8

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Pakistan 14/2 vs USA

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

29/3 and struggling big time

I'm guessing the USA team is fill of ex pats of different nations, or am I doing them a disservice?

 

[Carrotdude]

I was wondering where they’ve played their cricket as they do look pretty good

Four of this XI born in the US

They're not total ringers, though they do have Corey Anderson who played for NZ as recently as Nov 2018

4 seems reasonable enough for a young nation.

98/5, what the hell is Azam Khan doing in this team, so rubbish

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

160 to get

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

51/1 after 7 and no demons out there, if they hold their nerve they should do this

Tied and into a super over.

Pakistan having a mare! Gifted the USA runs. 18 from the over with 8 of the runs extras

 

[Sniffer]

Wide?

 

[Sniffer]

What a catch

 

[Kenny]

USA win!

 

[Sniffer]

They’ve done it.

Don’t put yourself down Alan. Enjoy it!

Fantastic win for the USA. No doubt Trump will claim the win.
