Ireland book world T20 place with ease

Ireland barely needed half their overs to cruise to a nine-wicket victory over Namibia and book their place in the ICC World Twenty20 tournament in Sri Lanka this September.

Ireland restricted Namibia to just 94 for six, and then knocked off the required runs from 61 balls to reach the final of the qualifying tournament, in which they will play Afghanistan later today to determine which group they will play in. A loss would see them face England in September.
