Ireland clinch Super Over thriller

If the rest of the ICC World Twenty20 is going to be as eventful as the warm-up game between Ireland and Netherlands it will be a thrilling tournament. The handful of fans who turned up at Lord's, and there weren't many, were witness to a tie and then a one-over eliminator after which Ireland finally clinched victory by four runs.

It was a beautifully hot day - albeit a Monday - and only a handful at Lord's. Let's hope the meagre attendance is not a foretaste of the competition proper, which gets going in earnest on Friday (June 5-21).
It is rarely that the one-over elimnator has to be brought into play. It must have been a thrill for those happy few who were there to see it, and a good experience for the players too.
