Bally, were I an Irish fan I would have to agree that so far the game has not gotten away from them. This is going to be interesting.

Ireland doing a good job restricting the world champs ... What is is a good score for WI from here, 66/3 after 12 overs?

Ahead of this game, Renaldo Metadeen sportswriter and social media manager for ESPN Caribbean, penned an article from which we can glean that Gayle hopes to find right combination with (Dwayne) Smith. Having won the toss West Indies elected to bat. With 20 minutes to go till game starts we will soon see how they combine. imho West Indies have gambled with this team selection. Game on.

I have a feeling that this one is worth a ball-by-ball following and though am feeling a bit beamish, i mean queasy, ahead of the first ball being bowled I do hope that windies intention to create lots of scoreboard pressure will be realised. Lawd Gayle hit a six fourth ball....
and with the score on 31 Smith is out. :ugeek: observes that the fall of the first windian wicket is an SSS affair: Smith c Sorensen b Stirling.

Thanks mikesiva

Chris Gayle to score a large T20 something against Ireland? Emphatically NO.
On paper WI should have had a plan to set Ireland to score at a rate of 9 per over.
