West Indies Emerging will host Ireland Emerging in the third and final match of the three-match unofficial ODI series on Tuesday, November 21, at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua.
West Indies Emerging bounced back strongly in the second game after losing the series opener. They beat Ireland Emerging by seven wickets to level terms in the series.
It was a disappointing batting performance from Ireland Emerging as they were bundled out for a paltry 103 in just 27.3 overs. Skipper Stephen Doheny (27) and Scott Macbeth (29) got starts but could not convert them into big scores.
In what was an all-round bowling effort from the West Indies Emerging, Joshua Bishop and Ashmead Nedd picked up three wickets. Skipper Nyeem Young and McKenny Clarke chipped in with two wickets apiece.
West Indies Emerging did not have an ideal start to the chase, as they were reduced to 40/3 inside nine overs. Fionn Hand, with a couple of wickets, helped Ireland Emerging run through the host’s top three batters.
However, Teddy Bishop and Jordan Johnson then steadied the ship for West Indies Emerging, stitching together an unbeaten 67-run stand to take them home. Bishop scored a measured 32, while Johnson smashed 40 off just 21 deliveries to wrap up the game in a mere 15.4 overs.
Both teams will look to fight hard as the series is now on the line with one final game to go.
