After a discussion between the Irish captain and the umpires the match has ended in a draw. With only 6 overs to play and with 2 being lost for the innings break they have called it quits.
For a match withich lost a session and two days that ended up being rather exciting. Ireland dominated for most parts but the Afghans can be very happy with their second innings where they clung on manfully for the draw.
That means Ireland will get 13 points from the match while Afghanistan get 7.
Ireland will next play against Bangladesh in three T20 games and we will have coverage of them on ESPNcricinfo. But from Conor Hayes in a dull Rathmines it's goodbye.
