Twitter reaction to Ireland’s win over UAE in the ‘match of the Cricket World Cup’

It was touch and go there for a while

Ireland continued their march towards the knockout stages of the Cricket World Cup with a thrilling victory over the UAE at the Gabba in Brisbane. Gary Wilson (80 from 69 balls ) and Kevin O'Brien (50 from 25 balls) were the heroes with the bat as Ireland chased down 279 in the final over to win by two wickets with just four balls remaining. George Dockrell hit the winning runs to seal a brilliant victory for Ireland in a thrilling game that was tense and nervy right to the last, with a leading Pakistani cricket writer describing it as 'the match of the tournament'. It was a match that left cricket experts from around the world calling on the ICC to change their decision to limit the World Cup from 2019 onwards to to the 10 elite teams., leaving no place for associate nations such as Ireland and the UAE.
