Ireland vs Pakistan, 1st T20I at Dublin, IRE vs PAK, May 10 2024 - Live Cricket Score

Final delivery, round the wicket, hits the deck hard and gets plenty of purchase, tries to have him down the ground but there is not much oomph behind the shot as the ball spirals away to wide long-off and they only get a single

Over the wicket, rams the yorker in the quiet zone, digs it out to long-on, Adair runs back and fields off his own bowling to keep them down to one

Snuffs out a yorker right into the blockhole, Adair lost the ball and a run-out opportunity at non-striker's end has gone begging, Shaheen was standing in the middle of the crease

Oh, that's a biggee! Right out of the screws, crouches and lifts it up and over deep midwicket and it's gone out of the park. Uses his lumberjack strong wrists to club it into the stands

Makes room and unfurls a gorgeous late cut past third man for a four, this is exactly what the doctor prescribed for Pakistan, Iftikhar giving the visitors the much-needed impetus towards the end

Short and sprays it down the leg side, he'll have to reload

Smacked over fine leg for a six, not the ideal line, errant delivery down leg, he quickly got down and sashayed across a little on off, gets a top-edge that is enough to send the ball on a trip to the boundary

Watches the sky in incredulity after being clonked for a big six over midwicket, finally manages to connect and connects pretty well! More punishment for Ireland, was a hefty blow

And once again, using his bat like a swinging door, should hold his composure. Once again banged in short in the channel, tries to plonk him into the leg side but can't lay bat on it

Continues to pepper him with short mean stuff and Shaheen is left frustrated, carbon copy of the previous ball, same result, tried to tonk him over midwicket

Another feisty bumper around the line off, attempts a pull and is nowhere near the line

Manufactures pace for himself and hoists him for six over long-off, gave him a charge and absolutely pummeled it. It was a slower back of a length ball outside off

Snorter of a bumper on a tricky off-stump line, plays all around it

Round the wicket, an intimidating bumper, not that pacy though, Shaheen takes him on and launched it in the air towards deep square, I'd call that a drop, a rare one in the evening. Dockrell got his hands on it but then it popped out

He's holed out! Crucial breakthrough at an important juncture of the innings! What a sprawling catch from McCarthy at long-off, charged in like a cheetah and pocketed the catch while lunging forward, excellent effort in the deep, Ireland have been tremendous in the field right from ball one, lots of energy and held onto their chances. That was mistimed in the air and he lost his shape

Tantalizingly in the air, clouted it towards deep midwicket, two fielders running towards each other and it falls safely between them, Iftikhar only adds one more to the board even though there was an opportunity for another run

Makes room and steers it down to deep third, it was a slow ball but he was equal to the task, played it with soft hands

Tonked for SIX! Touch full and width on offer, he gets down low and clobbers it up and over deep backward point for a maximum. Meaty blow. Not easy to manufacture a six from that position, he was down on one knee but still generated enough power to clear the ropes

Pace-off length ball spearing it across off, leans out and forces it across the line towards long-on

Short of a length, getting a hint of away movement off the pitch, glided down to backward point for a run and finishes a superb spell
