SL vs IRE
Sri Lanka vs Ireland match Sri Lanka won by a huge margin of 133 runs. Sri Lanka batted first and were all out for 325 in 49.5 overs. Karunaratne played brilliantly and was dismissed for 102 runs. Samarawickrama was dismissed for 82 and narrowly missed out on a century. Ireland were all out for 192 in 31 overs. None of their team's batsmen could score a half-century. Very poor batting performance from Ireland today. Congratulations Sri Lanka Cricket Team.

[SamReomo]

Ireland lost today's match against Sri Lanka by 133 runs which was already expected. Team Sri Lanka has been dominating other teams in this ICC world cup qualifier group stage, and their performance was truly mind-blowing in all those matches. The team Sri Lanka has won all five of the previous matches, and the next match is going to be a tough one for team Scotland because they will have to playa against the dominant team of Sri Lanka. In today's match Dimuth Karunaratne scored 103 runs and Sadeera Samarawickrama 82 runs for the team Sri Lanka, and o and I would say that the other players of the team also played well against Ireland bowers. The Dimuth Karunaratne played very dominantly against Ireland bowlers, and scored a whooping 103 runs for his team, on the other hand no player from team Ireland made any half century or even 40 runs against Sri Lankan bowlers. I betted in favor of Sri Lanka, and I won the bet, I also placed another bet in favor of Scotland, and I'm quite sure I will win that one also because team Oman isn't doing any good scores against Scotland.

I guess he isn't aware of copy-pasting/AI related rules within this forum. It's pretty evident that he didn't actually write it all on his own looking at his post history which is why he might get screwed pretty soon.

Shortcuts like these won't work within this forum and he will learn about it the hard way.

Sri Lanka VS Ireland
Today is the 15th match of Group B of World Cup Qualifier Sri Lanka vs Ireland. Sri Lanka have played two matches so far and won both matches. On the other hand, Ireland played two matches and they lost both matches. Sri Lanka topped Group B in the ICC World Cup Qualifier points table. Sri Lanka is a stronger team than Ireland in today's match. The Sri Lankan team players are in great form at present. I don't think Ireland can win today. Sri Lanka's chances of winning today are very high.

Srilanka ended their inning with the score of 325 runs. I don't think Nepal can chase this score and due to this, I guess that we can assume that Srilanka will win the 3rd match in the row. Dimuth Karunaratne made 103 runs while Sadeera Samarawickrama scored 82 runs and they put on a massive total for the Nepal to chase.

However, the only good thing that happened for Nepal in the match is that Srilanka was not able to score any runs in the last over of their innings as Adair took two wickets in two balls. In total, he took 4 wickets in the match.

The match is between Sri Lanka and Ireland, and I think you mistyped Ireland as Nepal. The match is a pure victory for Sri Lanka team because Ireland team isn't capable enough to cross the score of 325. The Sri Lankan bowlers are in their best shape and they won't let Ireland to score anywhere close to 300 run. I'm pretty sure that Ireland will lose this game by a huge margin of runs. The situation is same with Oman because team Scotland has scored 320 run-mark, and team Oman will hardly be able to cross that score. I'm quite sure that Scotland can also win today's match because they have been playing very well since their last match. However, Oman didn't played well in their last match against Sri Lanka. Team Sri Lanka won that match easily, Team Oman's performance was disastrous in that match.

Thanks for pointing out. I knew it was Ireland but mistakenly wrote Nepal, My bad.

Coming to the match, it was another easy win for the Srilanka as they won by 133 runs. I could not find the batsmen who could be stayed on the batting for long for the Ireland team.

One thing that surprises me is that the Man of the Match was given to Dimuth Karunaratne while Hasaranga took five wickets too. I think he also deserved to be the player of this match.

Dimuth Karunaratne has achieved something truly remarkable! Not only did he register a maiden ODI century, but also named Man of the Match award. While, Hasaranga managed to take an impressive five wickets, but he also given 79 runs, that stands he was expensive too.

[Popkon6]

The only reason Ireland lost was because of the high fall of wickets. Ireland have not played a single match this season and have been all out in all matches. Sri Lanka performed well today too and despite the fall of all the wickets, they are at the top of the run-scoring. Sri Lanka have played three matches winning three matches to stand first with 6 points. Especially in these matches, the team that can defend the wicket is more likely to win, so I think the Irish players on the field did not stay at the crease for long. wnindu Hasaranga took five wickets in 10 overs and this is where Sri Lanka are ahead as this bowling skill is very good. And before 100 runs were collected, Ireland fell by five wickets with the batting largely at a loss.

Let's now watch to see how Ireland does during their batting innings. A fascinating match between Scotland and Oman is also taking place at the same time.

Expected Sri Lanka to score way above 325 but they lost wickets in the end and Ireland was somehow able to restrict them but then it was an impossible task for Ireland to chase against Sri Lanka and won the match comfortably.

Scotland is playing a fairly good game and was impressed by the tight match against Ireland and Oman is a weaker side and there was no chance that we would see an upset.

[Webetcoins]

Today we have two matches and both were completely one-sided affair with Sri Lanka against Ireland from start Lankans were in completely control after scoring 325 runs as Karunaratne score century for his team and Samarawickrama smashed 82 runs Adair done good bowling he took 4 wickets which was not enough to give his team any chance while Ireland were on batting we have another amazing bowling spell from the star spinner Hasaranga he took third 5 wicket haul in this event while he was playing his third ODI here 16 wickets in three matches dream run for him.

In other match which played between Scotland vs Oman we have another one-sided match as Oman which is already qualified for the super six lost this match even Bilal Khan took 5 for 55 but this gone in vain and Scotland scored big target 320 with the help of Brandon McMullen who score 136 runs and then took 1 wicket with this win now they will be at second spot in their group.

It can be said for sure that Ireland will lose today's match because they are a normal team compared to Sri Lanka. We know that Sri Lanka is a strong team but Ireland is not that strong and their batting performance is not that good due to which they lost by many runs. Sri Lanka won against Ireland by a huge margin of 133 runs and increased their point in the points table. Sri Lanka is in first place in Group B with 6 points, they are ahead of Scotland. But Ireland didn't play well enough today they lost all the wickets and eventually lost against Sri Lanka.

Sri Lanka VS Ireland
Today is the 15th match of Group B of World Cup Qualifier Sri Lanka vs Ireland. Sri Lanka have played two matches so far and won both matches. On the other hand, Ireland played two matches and they lost both matches. Sri Lanka topped Group B in the ICC World Cup Qualifier points table. Sri Lanka is a stronger team than Ireland in today's match. The Sri Lankan team players are in great form at present. I don't think Ireland can win today. Sri Lanka's chances of winning today are very high.

Sri Lanka vs Ireland
 In today's match, Ireland won the toss and decided to bowl. Now Sri Lanka came to bat. Scored 64 runs in 11 overs. So far Sri Lanka has lost 2 strong wickets. Sri Lanka team batsman Pathum Nissanka was dismissed for 20 runs off 26 balls.  .Kusal Mendis is out for 0 runs in 1 ball. If Ireland can bowl well in today's match then Sri Lanka team's batsmen will be under a lot of pressure.

Sri Lanka's batting performance is not very good and not bad either. Sri Lanka scored 262 runs in 42 overs and lost 4 wickets. They tried to save wickets till 40 overs and they managed to do so but could not collect high runs. But now panickly started playing. And it looks like they can target 300+ runs. But Ireland is not very strong in cricket game. So Sri Lanka is very likely to win in this case. Let's see how Ireland can put up a batting performance

Sri Lanka's performance was very good and the target of 325 runs was very fair and on the other hand Ireland was weak in both bowling and batting due to which they could not get all the Sri Lankan players out and on the other hand they lost all the wickets with only 192 runs in this case Ireland lost the match by 133 runs.  It's not too bad for Ireland as they are not a strong team, which is not expected of them.  Sri Lanka has consistently shown good performances in the game of cricket which is not the first time so it is no surprise

[Litzki1990]

Ireland vs Sri Lanka

The Sri Lankan team batting innings is already ended after 325 runs were scored in 49.5 overs. Their batting performance was not particularly strong at first but they eventually succeeded in improving it. D. Karunaratne performed admirably putting up 103 runs on 103 balls. S. Samarawickrama and C. Asalanka among other players also put in strong performances. The Sri Lankan Captain however had a very poor batting performance as he was dismissed after only a few runs. However Ireland bowling was outstanding as demonstrated by M. Adair 4 wickets and B. McCarthy 3 wickets. Let's now watch to see how Ireland does during their batting innings. A fascinating match between Scotland and Oman is also taking place at the same time.

Ireland were all out for just 191 runs after playing 31 overs in the second innings against Sri Lanka. Ireland lost three matches in a row with this match loss. If there was one team that performed the worst of the ten World Cup qualifiers, it was Ireland. Six teams have already qualified for the next round. That is, the remaining matches of the World Cup Qualifiers are only regulation matches. The six teams that have qualified for the next round are Sri Lanka, Oman, Scotland, West Indies, Zimbabwe and the Netherlands. Best of luck to these six teams, hope all teams fight their best in the next round.

Ireland which is now full-member of the ICC having worst ever performance in this event as they completely fail to have any good result, and they have to blame themselves for this as their many players are involved in English Counties, and they prefer counties instead of their national team which give them big setback, and now they are out of the ODI World Cup as well their performance in today match was worst with no good bowling and failure in batting hurt them badly now they have last match against the UAE which is also at the bottom of this group.

Ireland needs to regroup themselves in they want to have better future in this game because now we have too many good teams are coming with better quality and performance, hopefully they will learn their lessons and try to improve for the next events.

Out of the 10 teams that played in the World Cup Qualifiers, the Ireland team disappointed me the most. I considered this group to be quite strong. In the last few series, they managed to do well against teams like England and Bangladesh. They lost all three matches in the World Cup Qualifiers consecutively. I did not expect such a bad performance from Ireland. Moreover, Ireland is not a new team. They have been playing cricket for a long time. Oman's team is playing much better than Ireland's.

Sri Lanka posted a target of 326 for Ireland. It was a really big target, even for a big opponent. It was obvious that Ireland was not going to reach the total. And of course we saw Ireland lose very badly in this match.

Sri Lanka winning by 133 runs in this match indicates that they are going to be qualifying for sure. I really feel like Sri Lanka was feeling insulted to be playing in this qualifier. They must have thought that they should have qualified by default. I think they are expressing their anger and also having a good preparation for the World Cup throughout this qualifier tournament.

Very poor batting performance from Ireland today. Congratulations Sri Lanka Cricket Team.

After Sri Lanka set a target of 326 I was sure they were going to win the match. Because the Ireland team is not in good form now. Their performance in the previous matches was not good. As usual, they did not perform well against Sri Lanka. Ireland lost all wickets for just 192 runs. The Ireland team was defeated today by a huge margin of 133 runs.

On the other hand, the Scotland team won easily against Oman. Scotland won by 76 runs. And the important thing is that Scotland won all three of their games. This team is in very good form and is performing well in every match.

Sri Lanka VS Ireland

Scotland vs Oman

Both match were really excited as because both side make some good runs, again as expected SiriLanka team beat the Irish side without any trouble , credit for this Victory goes to Hasaranga for 5 wicket due to Wich they got them early on.
While Oman make trouble for Scottish side but they some how manage and got a victory.
Now according to points table from group (B) SiriLanka and Scotland almost qualify for next round while from group (A) Zimbabwe almost qualify for super six while for second contender thier will be final deciding fight between Netherland and West indies as because both has same point and same matches and the winner will be second team after Zimbabwe to qualify.

Ireland team really doesn't has that power and skill now to compete at the international level. It was only until the O'Brian brothers were there that really used to turn the match for them. Now except for J. Little I don't see a single person in whom I can see a future developing star for Irish cricket. Not surprised to see them losing so badly.
