Pakistan vs Ireland, 9th Match, Group D at Kingston, Mar 17 2007 - Match Result

Johnston swings and clubs the ball out of the ground over long-on. The crowd go mad as Billy Bowden's bent fingers are raised aloft ...

full, driven to mid-on

tip-and-run, Johnston was yards short if the throw from Nazir at cover had hit, but it wasn't close. The scores are tied

solid forward defensive shot, no risks with two needed

fired in at off stump, squeezed to square leg

worked past mid-on, there's a man in the deep so just the one. More cheers ...

forward and flicked round the corner but there's a man there on the one

pushed to leg, it goes nowhere

steps but to cut but he misses it ... there's nobody in the deep on the off, just three in the ring

forward defensive, kills the spin

leg side, he looks to turn it round the corner but it's glove and thigh pad rather than bat ... they don't care, it's a run and that's all that matters to the Irish

O'Brien back and over that, he did well as it got big on him but he was right on top of it

another good yorker but outside off stump, and again dug out

worked down to third man

great yorker, shades of Waqar in his pomp, but Johnston got his feet out of the way and somehow dug it out. Superb and absorbing cricket all round

firm drive to extra cover

full toss down the leg side, Akmal did really well to leap to his left and take that, it could easily have been five wides

short and a trifle wide, O'Brien stands tall and launches that between cover and extra cover, well timed and the fielders had no chance

short and O'Brien ducks rather than hooks

huge cheer as the ball goes into the leg side and the batsmen scamper a single
