Both these teams will be coming into this match disappointed with their previous results, but it's unsure who will be more upset. Bermuda were simply thumped, losing to Kenya by 10 wickets. Ireland were nosed at the wire by Scotland, with a boundary hit on the last ball of the match leading to the result. It's a relatively short tournament, and 2 losses may be too much - time to win.

Match to begin: January 31, 2007 - 06:30 GMT

Weather: Cloudy with sunny breaks, 23C(73F)

Bermuda XV: Irving Romaine, Dean Minors, Clay Smith, Stephen Outerbridge, OJ Pitcher, David Hemp, Janeiro Tucker, Lionel Cann, Malachi Jones, Delyone Borden, Saleem Mukuddem, Kevin Hurdle, Dwayne Leverock, Stefan Kelly, Arthur Pitcher Jr.

Ireland XV: Trent Johnston, Andre Botha, Jeremy Bray, Kenny Carroll, Peter Gillespie, Dave Langford-Smith, Kyle McCallan, John Mooney, Paul Mooney, Eoin Morgan, Kevin O'Brien, Niall O'Brien, William Porterfield, Boyd Rankin, Andrew White​
 
Re: WCL Match 4: Bermuda v Ireland

I have to think Ireland is going to be mad after losing to Scotland.
 
Re: WCL Match 4: Bermuda v Ireland

... and they will certainly take it out on Bermuda :)
This game will certainly be an uphill climb for Bermuda for sure. Just as Scotland pulled of a win against Ireland. I'm beleiving for a similar result with Bermuda. Go Bermy!
 
Re: WCL Match 4: Bermuda v Ireland

This game is certainly going to be interesting.

Bermuda 278/8 after 50 overs, wow! is this the same team :)

high scorers: Clay Smith, 52 & Dean Minors 51 good opening scores for a change. Let's hope they can defend this score, so now it is up to the bowlers.

Looks like Bermuda is doing a fair job containing them.
J. Tucker and Malachi Jones each have a wicket.
They haven't brought on the "Rock" yet

Looks like the Irish are upping the run rate.
I'm starting to get nervous here
 
Re: WCL Match 4: Bermuda v Ireland

This is developing to be a close match indeed!
 
Re: WCL Match 4: Bermuda v Ireland

The "rock" strikes again.
231/4 after 42 overs

The Irish need 45 runs to win.
This is agonizing for me, I hope in the last 8 overs Bermuda could contain them.

Porterfield is on 91 trying to reach his ton in this one.

Leverock is doing his thing, keeping them below the run rate. with 6 overs to go, can Bermuda pull an upset here? I'm saying yes!!

I'm really trying to contain my emotions right now:)
 
Re: WCL Match 4: Bermuda v Ireland

That's it! The Irish have won

A very good effort on the part of the Bermudians
I'm really crying right now :(
 
Re: WCL Match 4: Bermuda v Ireland

Quality effort by Bermuda!
Hopefully they'll play like this for the rest of the tournament.
