and that's the game for Ireland, it was on off stump and Drummond played away from his body and got a fine edge through to O'Brien. Umpire Hair raised the finger with no hesitation
Ireland vs Scotland, 6th Match at Belfast, Jul 15 2007 - Ball by Ball Commentary
So that's our coverage finished in Ireland for the time being. The West Indies win by the slender margin of one point, although Ireland will be pleased with their performance in beating their associate neighbours.
Today Scotland lost their way when seemingly well set, collapsing miserably after Watson departed. For Ireland the undoubted star was Andre Botha who bowled with great control to peg Scotland back, with Ireland impressive in the field
driven straight to mid-off, who to the disapointment of the crowd decides against a throw at the stumps
full ball clipped in the air over mid-wicket, nearly another run-out but thy were just home
Fantastic spell there from Botha, great control as he pegged Scotland back
off the mark with a mis-timed drive to mid-on
driven wide of mid-off
another one goes, a fantastic piece of fielding by Johnston at mid-on left Haq stranded mid-pitch, he only had one stump to aim at, super work
dropped, awful drop by Morgan at long-on, it was hit straight down his throat but somehow it slipped out of his hands
driven wide of mid-on, nicely played
cut in the air out to point
Botha to complete a marvelous spell, I don't think anyone would begrudge him another wicket, apart from the Scots that is!
nice dout to long-on
Haq, the usual opener batting at number ten, strange tactics?
driven to mid-off
another one goes and this is turning into a procession, it was a yorker that he tried to drive, but again with no foot movement he misses
that's poor keeping as a pretty ordinary delivery evaades everone and runs to the boundary
on off stump, he attempts a drive but misses, no foot movement there
Cusak returns now, only a miricle will save Scotland now
driven through the covers, Ireland won't mind these singles
bowled, it was yorker length and Smith backed away to give himself room, he missed an attempted drive and the ball crased into off stump, good bowling
short ball, pulled to O'Brien at mid-wicket
full ball driven over Botha's head for two
just short of a length, Drummond misses an attempted pull
driven to mid- off, they hesitate mid-pitch and a good throw by McCallan sees Blain run out by a distance
