Tri-Nation Tournament: Scotland v Ireland

Yesterday’s opening One Day International game in the Tri-Nation Tournament in Scotland, Ireland v Sri Lanka, was a wash-out.  But today’s, Scotland v Ireland, is underway.  Scotland won the toss and elected to field.  After 11 overs Ireland are 63 for 1.  ESPN Cricinfo scorecard here.  And, thanks to PaulT in the comments, here’s the Cricket Scotland TV live coverage. Update Ireland 320 for 8 from 50 overs. Adds Scotland 323 for 5 from 48.3 overs. Scotland win by 5 wickets with their highest ever ODI total. A poor fielding performance by Ireland after setting what should have been a defendable target.
