Ireland blow chance of historic series win - chairman - 02-22-2014 Ireland missed a glorious chance to claim a first-ever series win against one of the 'big boys' in world cricket when they failed to chase 97 in the second Twenty20 international against West Indies. For the second successive game, the bowlers produced a herculean performance, albeit on a Sabina Park pitch when the batsman on both sides struggled. Indeed, no West Indies batsmen reached 20, again, as Ireland restricted them to 96 for nine, but the world champions in the shortest format upped their game in the field and early wickets put Ireland under pressure, with which they couldn't cope.
