Sky Sports News are going berserk.

QuoteThe Irish fans are celebrating, they've witnessed one of the great One-day internationals here at Sabina Park.

Sounds like madness!!! I thought I knew the rules of cricket but surely Ireland won the game by 1 wicket if Zimbabwe were all out at the end of the 50 overs.

Anyway it sounds like it was a fantastic game and if there are a few more like that I'm sure cricket will get a few more supporters around the place.

That was an incredible finish to that game, Zimbabies blew up but it was great. Who said cricket was boring.

Why oh why a spinner to Matsi for the last over...
One thing i don't understand ..... why did O'Brien throw the last ball to the non batting end when nothing was to be gained from it apart from the a risk of missing the stumps and giving Zimbabwe the chance to get a single to win (maybe i am missing some details here as i was listening to the radio)
And crap .... i thought we had won it with the last run out
