SIX! Barry McCarthy to Keacy Carty. Short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. West Indies have posted a massive total on the board, falling two short of their record. Evin Lewis and Shai Hope started the innings explosively, forming a partnership of 122 runs, Lewis striking eight sixes in his 91, whilst Hope gave superb support with his 51. Keacy Carty ensured the momentum was maintained with an explosive 49 off just 22 balls, as Ireland's bowlers couldn't contain the tourists powerful batting, Romario Shepherd with three late sixes as the ropes were cleared 20 times in total. Matthew Humphreys was the exception with the ball, his two wickets and only 16 runs conceded the standout compared to his teammates struggles. Can Ireland step up in the face of this daunting total? Join us for the run chase shortly.
