Looking promising for England. But they really need to win this comfortably.

Jamie Dalrymple, a Middlesex all-rounder who bowls off-spin. Can't see him making much impact... |

Only 38 runs? Didn't realise Ireland had a cricket team at all... I thought they might have the equivalent of a non-league county team or something, like a smaller form of Scotland  |

I thought they might have the equivalent of a non-league county team or something, like a smaller form of Scotland They do play in the C&G Trophy but have also qualified for next year's World Cup for the first time. They are in a group with the West Indies, Pakistan and Zimbabwe. Scotland have also qualified and will face Australia, South Africa and Holland, another team to come through the qualifying tournament. The other 2 qualifiers, joining the 11 automatic qualifiers, are Canada, who are in England's group, and Bermuda. |
