Nah, just not suited to 20 over cricket.Have money on Oman, but so sad to watch Ireland struggle against what is a really average associate side.
I think Irish cricket is finished.

I also have money on Oman, but that's only because of the reason mentioned by turnstyle.Nah, just not suited to 20 over cricket.
Wasn't impressed with the under 19s we seen in the world cup, this is an ageing side, who is their in the counties to excite anyone? Chase is raw, Balbirnie is ok, but doesn't scream world beater.Nah, just not suited to 20 over cricket.
His reaction to getting run out, so goodThe Oman captain looks like the most serious person in the world.

Big call - we won't win unless Rankin takes a lot. Batting was awful against PNG.
It's been predictable tstlStirling to make 30(20) and spoon it to cover.
Said this over in the main forum but thanks to the ICC being a bunch of ****s we lost a golden generation of Associate players because of the lack of fixtures.Wasn't impressed with the under 19s we seen in the world cup, this is an ageing side, who is their in the counties to excite anyone?

I suspect this was a golden generation which is coming to an end. Its remarkable really that they were so good when you consider how small the country is and how much the nation loves soccer, GAA and rugby.
I'd like to be wrong very much though!
Sorenson bowled better than Young and Rankin until the last over but man Murtagh was so awfulWhy was Sorenson bowling that last over? Young only bowled 2 and boyd not bowled out?
Ireland were a disgrace today, if you can't put away a nothing side like Oman, then god help them.
Hopefully Bangladesh and Holland show them some mercy.
Boyd is the main man while Young has always been a better bowler than Sorenson. However yeah that over from Murtagh was what nightmares are made off.Sorenson bowled better than Young and Rankin until the last over but man Murtagh was so awful
Murtagh's actually retired from T20Is twice now but they keep talking him out of it. Maybe they should listen to him next time.Sorenson bowled better than Young and Rankin until the last over but man Murtagh was so awful
Not much choices is their though. Mooney retired, and Chase still raw as hell.Murtagh's actually retired from T20Is twice now but they keep talking him out of it. Maybe they should listen to him next time.
They actually bowled Rankin from the wrong end as Bish was referring to. Don't want to be too harsh on Rankin but he was clueless in the opening overs when the left hander took him on. Came back well in his last over though.Boyd is the main man while Young has always been a better bowler than Sorenson. However yeah that over from Murtagh was what nightmares are made off.
