Ireland -vs- India T20, live from Malahide on Sky Sports Cricket.

Coat yourself with factor 50, tilt your TV towards the patio, grab a few cold ones from the fridge, some cucumber sandwiches and strawberries with cream... pure bliss!

Sky Sports Cricket switched to England (captained by our own Eoin Morgan) -vs- Australia. Continued coverage of Irish game via red button or Sky Sports Mix, also live on Sony Six (India, ch 7968 on my IPTV).

2nd T20 today, again live on Sky Sports Cricket (3:50 p.m.) and Sony Six (India). Have to admit that I'm more than a bit pissed off at having to watch on TV. I really wanted to watch on the big screen at the ground but I never expected such an apparently one sided fixture to sell out with the huge temporary grandstand still in situ. Even with the momentum of playing our first ever test match last month one has to (however reluctantly) congratulate Cricket Ireland on it's promotion of the game. India had huge support on Wednesday, testament to our modern multi-cultured society, I guess.

Fairly hammered they were but big oaks from little acorns do grow.

The plan is to develop a "state of the art" ground at Abbotstown so the grandstand at Malahide will be removed. I guess one can't argue with "state of the art" facilities but Abbotstown will never offer visitors the taste of Ireland available at locations such as Malahide, Clontarf, Stormont, etc... Cricket isn't all about cricket!

We were well beaten alright, LL. However, there must be some positives to take from the experience. IDA and others used the occasion to promote Ireland to the Indian TV audience and cement relations between the countries well beyond the field of play. Anywaysanall, Eoin Morgan will sort dem injuns out for us next week!
