MATCH PREVIEW

Ireland

• Ireland has lacked consistency in this tournament, with the defeats to the UAE and Canada in between wins against Hong Kong and Oman.
• Gareth Delany taking the lead with 89 made a winning way over Oman.
• But they failed to back it up against Canada as they lost wickets in the middle overs.
• Lorcan Tucker was replaced by Andy Balbirnie, but Gareth Delany retained his batting position after his heroics against Oman.
• Even though Balbirnie was out for the first ball, the batting line-up is likely to be retained again.

• Jersey might have missed an opportunity to reach the play-offs of this competition.
• It was Benjamin Ward’s 47 which brought a win against UAE. The hosts were bowled out for 112 as Harry Carlyon and Ward each took three wickets.
