What an upset. Disaster for Ireland. Shocker. They couldn't defend 14 off the last over.

amazing

They could but he bowled 5 wides  :-[

19.5
Sorensen to Ansari, 5 no balls, another full-toss, beats the batsman, nutmegs the keeper....

Oman have won!

Aamer Ali, the Man of the Match, says, through a translator :

"God was with us and we were trying to get boundaries every over.

We have done a lot of hard work before coming to the World Cup, and finally it has paid off."

           

Oman, never has a team looked like, or played like, a team of accountants more, and done so well.

Blame Phil Simmons for this  ::LOL::

I consider Ireland a spot above Zimbabwe. They constantly perform well in all their test. Their matches are never one sides like UAE etc. They defeated many top nations like Pakistan, WI. I think they are in a strong position to qualify for the super 10

I wish we could stop calling them 'associates' and 'affiliates' to start with. These terms merely legitimise their blatant exclusion
