OUT! Run Out. Mustafizur Rahman to Gareth Delany. Off cutter short, wide down leg side on the back foot pulling, missed, direct hit by Das. Ireland have set a defendable total after being elected to bat first. The opening partnership between Paul Stirling and Tim Tector was strong during the powerplay, but after their wickets fell, the scoring rate declined as more wickets began to tumble quickly. Lorcan Tucker made a valuable contribution at the end with crucial runs. Mahedi Hasan took three wickets in the innings. Will the hosts manage to level the series? Stay tuned for the chase.
