IRE are 86/0 at the moment. Stirling is playing a sterling knock and is now 50 not out !
Stirling got a century and is now 100 not out and the first wicket partnership fetched 177 runs for IRE. Porterfield was out, caught behind, off Cooper for 68.
This is a glorious response by IRE indeed ! In 25 overs, they were 177/1 !
IRE won by six wickets, with Sterling scoring 101. Niall O Brien was 57 not out and IRE finished at 307/4 !
All credit to IRE for the great chase !
It was a grand match, with IRE rising to the occasion, not overawed by the massive 306 posted by the Dutch. An opening partnership of 177 by Porterfield and Stirling laid the base for that mammoth 307/4 ! Sterling went on to score a brilliant hundred and others like Niall O Brien ( 57) played well to show Irish supremacy !
