Welcome back for the run-chase!
16:36 Local Time, 15:36 GMT, 21:06 IST: Pakistan will believe they've done well to restrict Ireland to 178 on a good looking pitch. At 132 for 2 and with Lorcan Tucker, the stand-in captain looking good, the hosts would have thought about 200+/. But they let the advantage slip by getting reduced to 153 for 6 and they finished with 178, despite Harry Tector's 20-ball 30*. Shaheen Afridi was outstanding and he finished with 3 for 14. Pakistan's fielding was sloppy, but the bowlers were effective and they'll back themselves to chase this score down. Back shortly for the chase..
