It might have seemed that the Pakistan innings went on forever, I'm sure that the Irish Bowlers will feel that it did. Sharjeel Khan was hitting the ball so cleanly, that his magnificent 152 came up off only 86 balls. With two cameos at the end from Shoaib and Nawaz on his ODI debut, Ireland are going into have to play out of their skins to chase this total down.

Its going to be a quick turn around here as the Irish bowlers took their time getting through the overs. So we start again at 4:20pm.

Match State: Innings Break

Welcome back, that was a quick break wasn't it? This is the third time that Ireland have chased over 300 in the last three ODI's here at Malahide. Ireland have also decided to change their batting order, Stirling has moved back up to the top of the order.
