Ireland aim to upset the odds against West Indies

IRELAND coach Adrian Birrell has warned West Indies that his side will be looking to repeat their stunning success over Pakistan when the sides meet at Sabina Park today in the final Group D match.

Ireland aim to upset the odds against West Indies

Birrell’s team pulled off one of the greatest upsets in the tournament’s history when they completed a three-wicket victory over Pakistan, who they ousted from the competition in the process and, although Ireland and the West Indies are guaranteed a spot in the Super Eight stage, they are now doing battle for bonus points to carry through to that round.

Birrell has already targeted areas his side can improve upon, but after claiming a dramatic tie against Zimbabwe in their opening fixture before upsetting the form book against Pakistan, confidence is high amongst his team.
