5.13pm Afghanistan started off quite slowly after being put in but have ended with a formidable total on board. Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Hazratullah Zazai put up a superb 90-run stand and Najibullah and Ibrahim Zadran made sure the momentum did not slip away despite Ireland's strikes. Ireland bowlers stuck to bowling shorter lengths but they didn't always find success with the plan. Josh Little finished as their best bowler again with 2 for 29. Let's see if Ireland can chase this down! Over to Hemant
