Yeah, it's bollocks - nasty carry on

Nail-bite central as Ireland slowly but surely contrive to p*ss away a commanding lead and deliver that rarity, a test win, against Afghanistan. Decent first innings lead but crumbling in the chase for 111 on a seriously turned wicket.. Currently 55-4 after tea

A great day for the Parish.

Wahey. Balbirnie anchors the win

Some wild calls by the umpires in this ODI. Tough gig but some very very poor calls. No DRS makes it more frustrating.

180/3 off 35 makes it a bit closer than i expected but as soon as one or other of Tector or Tucker goes, it's all over.
