1.2 Powell to Porterfield, OUT, again a tad short, this time Porterfield tried to get over it but it was too big for him and an edge flew to Gayle at firstslip ... regulation catch at chest height, and that's Porterfield's second duck in three matches•AFP

21.6 Taylor to Bray, OUT, a limp end to a real curate's egg of an innings. An even slower ball - 67mph - and a half volley as well, Bray drives and all he does is chip the ball to Lendl Simmons, the substitute, mid-off - a return to the bowler goes harder than that - and he's on his way•AFP

... as does Andre Botha, but Ireland only made 183 •AFP

...and now he goes over the top as he powers West Indies to win•AFP

15.3 Powell to Morgan, OUT, comes down the wicket looking to hook that short one and that's a really good catch from the keeper Ramdin. He had to sprint a fair mile to pick that one, two other fielders in pursuit, too, and in the end he took it just inside the boundary with a showboating dive to make Cristiano Ronaldo proud. Nevertheless, that was some really excellent work•AFP
