Scoreline: Ireland 207 all out – Porterfield 75, Niall O’Brien 46 | Yuvraj Singh 10-31-5
India win in 46 (after some shaky moments) – Yuvraj Singh 50 no, Tendulkar 38, Kohli 34, Dhoni 34, Yusuf 30 no | Dockrell 10-49-2, Johnston 5-1-16-2
The Irish continue to push for more international opportunities and Porterfield finally demonstrates what he can do with a bat on the world stage. Having watched him only in such tournaments, have always wondered about this.
For India, it does seem that the Yuvraj’s rehabilitation process initiated during his batting stint with Tendulkar in the Ind-Eng game is midway through. Look out for him acknowledging Sachin after getting his 50 – Ind Bat 3 – around 7:18 where he grabs his crotch in imitation of Sachin’s early career famed mannerism.
Watch Ireland vs India highlights – the Group B game from the 2011 World Cup played on March 6.
the site was down for a few hours – should be all ok now
Great performance by Yuvraj but the batting top order collapsed very bad !!! India must fixed it & their bowling too, Zak is performing continuously.
Bro, do you mean Pak? or Zaheer Khan or something? If you meant Pak (I’m Pak fan) then they are not performing consistently lol…almost got beaten by Canada…the team managment guy Alam said that only 2-3 players perform on a given day and thats what makes the difference. I guess he is right given how Yuvraj was one of the 2-3 players who stepped up.
Admin keep up the good work buddy.
zaheer’s nickname in in the indian team is zak.
thanks man
I had a feeling it was his nick name but then I thought there was a typo. Thanks.
the canada-kenya game will be available on march 8 at 6:00 am gmt
