Just in: AB de Villiers has been ruled out of the home ODI and away Test series against Australia with an elbow injury.

1.20pm So Ireland fall just short of 200, and once again fail to bat out the 50 overs. That's the third time in a row that this has happened. Even though they batted better today than they did against South Africa, being 121 for 2 at one stage, they will be disappointed to have been dismissed for 198.

I suppose that's what happens when you lose 3 wickets for 2 runs?

Australia's bowling and fielding seemed a bit rusty at the start and I'm sure that Darren Lehman will not be happy with the 19 wides that came today. Yet whenever there seemed to be an Irish partnership forming, a wicket would come. Ireland just couldn't cope with Zampa's bowing and his 10 overs went for only 37 runs. Taking the big wickets of Porterfield and O'Brien to boot.

We start again in 40 minutes at 2:15pm , so please join me then for the chase!

Jose...P: "Delighted to see my favourite spinner Zampa getting 3 wickets at the best economy rate."
