- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.4 It was Ferguson who breached Stirling's defences with an inswinger in the first game. In the second, Henry pins him in front with a similar inswinger. Nice and full, veers back in to thud into back pad, catching Stirling on the crease. Struck in line with middle stump. That's pretty adjacent and Stirling has to go for a duck 0/14.4 Balbirnie offers no shot and misjudges this incoming delivery from Henry. On a length, starts outside off and jags back in like an offutter. Balbirnie opts to shoulder arms and the ball kisses the top of the stumps. The bails go flying. Balbirnie had to offer bat to ball there 5/218.3 Bracewell bags another wicket. McBrine races down the track to the offspinner. Bracewell spots it, tosses it up liberally outside off and shifts it well wide of off. An advancing McBrine can't reach the ball. Latham collects the ball and takes the bails off. The Beast does it for NZ once again 61/412.3 Bracewell strikes with his third delivery to snag Tector. Slower offbreak from Bracewell, nice and dipping into outside off. An advancing Tector is nowhere near the pitch of the delivery. Ends up slicing a loft to long-on 32/327.3 wide on the crease, drifting in and then turning away once again, this time Santner finds the outside edge. A crease-bound Campher pushes at it, Santner finds some extra bounce as well. Allen snaffles it at first slip. Welcome back, Mitch 85/536.3 the drop a few balls earlier only costs one run. Good length ball on off, Tucker goes for another flat-footed hack and slices a tame chance floating gently to point where Tickner shuffles to his right for a chest high chance taken with the utmost ease. 126/644.3 maiden ODI wicket for Duffy! Slower length ball on the stumps, Dockrell goes for a swipe trying to clear long-on but mistimes this and picks out Bracewell 10 yards in from the rope who takes this on his haunches. 185/745.2 chaos as Singh's luck finally runs out! Back of a length on fifth stump, shuffles across to flick to square leg. Singh calls Adair for a run and Adair takes a stride down the wicket before changing his mind and calling no. Singh was going to make the run easily with the ball going well wide of the fielder but Adair is ball-watching and stays put. Singh winds up running 30+ yards and gets nothing for it before going back to the pavilion as the relay to the bowler is true. 187/845.5 good length ball flighted on fourth stump, Young follows this turn with his hands on a flat-footed poke, healthy edge through to Latham. 188/947.6 full on off, slices high over cover and lands in no man's land between extra cover and the sweeper for one. They bizarrely try to come back for a second which would put Little on strike to start the next over, particularly after Adair turned down a single on the previous ball to protect Little, and Little is run out at the non-striker's end with a sharp relay by a good five yards. 216/10Extras21 (b 4, lb 2, nb 3, w 12)TOTAL216 all out (48 Overs, RR: 4.5)Fall of wickets: 1-0 (Paul Stirling, 0.4 ov), 2-5 (Andy Balbirnie, 4.4 ov), 3-32 (Harry Tector, 12.3 ov), 4-61 (Andy McBrine, 18.3 ov), 5-85 (Curtis Campher, 27.3 ov), 6-126 (Lorcan Tucker, 36.3 ov), 7-185 (George Dockrell, 44.3 ov), 8-187 (Simi Singh, 45.2 ov), 9-188 (Craig Young, 45.5 ov), 10-216 (Josh Little, 47.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.1 ...and Adair strikes first ball. Yorked first ball as Guptill goes for a golden duck. Mighty full and swings back in, Guptill is surprised by that first up and can't jam it out. Perfect start for Ireland. After being yorked by Campher in the first match, Guptill is now yorked by Adair in the second 0/116.6 Chipped to Little at mid-on. Campher pushes it full on middle and leg, Allen aims to pick it up over the leg side. He can only toe-end a catch to the infielder as the bat twists in his hand. The drink will taste sweeter for Ireland 101/30.2 Two in two for Adair. What a start for Adair. He's absolutely pumped. This is full and nips back in to breach the weak defences of Young and thud into middle stump. Scenes in Malahide 0/232.2 Singh slides this on toward middle and leg stump from around the wicket and beats Latham playing back, big lbw shout upheld. After a brief chat with Bracewell, he walks off without reviewing. On the live first look, it looked like there could be some doubt as to whether it was skidding past leg stump going straight on with the angle rather than turning to straighten. But Latham was extremely deep in the crease to remove doubt from Aleem Dar. 177/624.2 full on the legs, sweeps this behind square for one, they come back for the second but Campher fires a laser into the striker's end stumps that hits direct and finds Nicholls a yard short with a desperate dive. 132/427.2 chop on! Back of a length on sixth stump, Phillips goes to cut and the ball doesn't quite come onto the bat, through the shot a touch early and Phillips' bottom edge cannons into the bottom of the stumps. 149/536.4 full on the legs, uses his feet to chip this loosely in the air toward deep midwicket. Simple catch five yards in from the rope by Campher who clutches on at chest height. Santner was aiming more toward trying to clear mid-on in the ring but instead the ball skidded straight and he clipped it much wider off the inner half of the bat to pick out Campher on the midwicket rope. 197/7Extras20 (b 4, lb 6, nb 1, w 9)TOTAL219/7 (38.1 Overs, RR: 5.73)Fall of wickets: 1-0 (Martin Guptill, 0.1 ov), 2-0 (Will Young, 0.2 ov), 3-101 (Finn Allen, 16.6 ov), 4-132 (Henry Nicholls, 24.2 ov), 5-149 (Glenn Phillips, 27.2 ov), 6-177 (Tom Latham, 32.2 ov), 7-197 (Mitchell Santner, 36.4 ov)
