6 328 Ireland (Joyce 88, 67 Porter Field, Wilson 56) to win in Canada 195 (50 Limbadi, Mooney 27/04) 133 runs
Ireland has built the innings to win a four-day Intercontinental Cup against Canada, the dominant view of the second ODI at Clontarf Cricket Club in Dublin. The hosts 328 cruise sixth before firing over a mere 195 Canada 49. Ireland has won the total was built around Ed Joyce 88, Captain William Field Porter and Gary Wilson, 67, 56 from 35 balls, was the answer to all the batsmen, with Kevin O'Brien, hitting two sixes and three in four of his 15-ball 35 Ireland bowlers also worked as a unit, in which John Mooney to collect after 4, 27
Canada had found dull and distracted in their two days last week's drubbing, but it was hoped they would be more inspired by the limited-overs games. While there was little more energy in the field, Canada once again proved no match for the team well drilled in Ireland.
After being put in to bat, Paul Stirling opened handles brilliantly typical Irish, broke into the 20s with three fours and a six before he rises back up to Harvir Baidwan. Joyce, who deflected the ball the first day to the fine leg boundary, initially seemed Stirling took the attack to the bowlers, but open when it ruled against the side leg. Porterfield quickly caught up with him and the two men brought their half century from consecutive deliveries in the 24th above.
They have seen it grow from there, but both fell trying to force the score and appeared briefly in Canada may be able to return to the game. To the center of Ireland undermined this hope, however, with Gary Wilson for a 56-race unbeaten in just 36 balls and Kevin O'Brien break his 100th six in the Ireland of his vortex sleeves.
In response to Canada's openers began rather fluid, but was always behind the rate required. Mooney and Trent Johnston was reduced to 63-3 before Usman Limbada installed to stabilize the innings. He left his aggression for survival and the rate required pumping was soon out of reach.
Limbara managed only 50 before being caught by a hook on the top of depth. Things unravel from there, with the Irish gardeners stick to their capture as Canada sought to success. The last six windows fell by 55 points and Canada was made in 48.4 overs. Canada will have an opportunity to improve their reputation, when the teams meet for another ODI on 20 September.
