India v Ireland at Hamilton

34th Match, Pool B: Mar 10, 2015

starts in 10 hours ...

Folks , I am very concerned about India decision to "rest" front line bowlers.

conspiracy theory tells me : they will "throw' the match 

India wanna remain undefeated OR dont like West Indies as their Knock Out opponents at the next stage ??

Team unchanged ....

Ireland have won the toss, and they will bat first. Ireland have made one change, Stuart Thompson is in for Andy McBrine. Seamer replaces spinner. India are unchanged. MS Dhoni says it's a good opportunity for his team to chase a target, so he isn't too unhappy to have lost the toss.

IRE 18/0 (2.3 ov) 

Ireland 33/0 (5.0 ov)

The best five-over score against India in this tournament. Previous best was Pakistan's 28. India have gone wicketless in the first five for the first time as well.

Excellent start by Ireland. They are batting well.

End of over 13 ... IRE 73/0

Porterfield & Stirling motoring along .........

105/2 from 22.3

128/2 from 28
