Sadly it looks like those last four or five overs bowling against Sri Lanka was the difference between getting out of the group or not.

The last few overs of the Sri Lanka innings makes all the difference as Ireland are bowled out for 143 . Sri lanka win by 20 runs

Looked in with a chance at the halfway stage, lots two many wickets and lost momentum.

Dropped catches in the field hurts Ireland.

two in two for McCarthy, which means he has a chance for a hatrick.

Sri Lanka 153/6 with 7 balls to go.

Hell of an innings from Kamindu, 44 off only 19 balls.

Shows how quickly momentum can change in T20's.

With 6 needed off the last ball, Lokesh Bam can only hit the ball to deep cover and England win by 4 runs.

Ireland bowl well after UAE openers get off to a flyer.

UAE can only reach 140/8 off their 20 overs and Ireland win by 30 runs.

Win the series 2-0.

An excellent 67 run partnership between Mark Adair and Campher drive Ireland up to 170/7 in the second t20i against the UAE

It did look like the innings was getting bogged down until some big hitting in the end

Ireland pick up a huge win over the Dutch today in the world t20 qualifiers

The 98 run win moves them into third place in the super six table and gives their net run rate a supercharge.

A win in their final group match against Thailand will guarantee them a place in the World Cup.
