We still have over a solid month left in the summer season, but the inevitable is right around the corner. Before you know it, cold and rainy days will replace poolside barbecues and beach parties. This year, let your true feelings about the crappy weather be known with this Fuck The Rain Umbrella (also known as the "Up Yours Umbrella").
Sure, rain plays a crucial part in the world, but it sure puts a damper on our social lives. Designed as a collaboration project between Artemy Lebedev and Anton Schnaider, this Chinese made umbrella comes equipped with an automatic open/close button, and is constructed from 100% polyester to combat the downpour. The key feature here though is the massive middle finger showing the both the rain and the world how you feel about getting drenched in water. Purchase yours from their online store.

Estro-Care is said to be a phytoestrogen body cream that helps to manage the symptoms of menopause. Each pump of Estro-care is equivalent to 25 mg of phytoestrogens. It comes in airtight-sealed containers for hygienic purposes. According to its manufacturer, Estro-care has been specially formulated to match the lifestyle of an active woman.
Estro-care comes in 2 0z bottles that are sold at roughly $15 to $25 per bottle. It can be purchased from its official website as well as from other third party retailers.

- Black cohosh extract
- Dong Quai root extract

- It supports the bones and joints, acts as an energy booster and also has detoxification properties.
Hyaluronic Acid
- This is also another substance that is naturally found in the body.
- It acts as lubrication for tissues and joints.
- Research has also shown that it has anti-aging properties.
Advantages of Estro-Care

- It is a safe and effective way of dealing with symptoms of menopause.
- It has the safest form of estrogen.
- It compliments an active woman's lifestyle.
- It is easy to use.
- It is not greasy.
- It is formulated in such a way that it is easily absorbed into the body.
Disadvantages of Estro-Care
- It may cause negative reactions in some people.
- The official website has limited information.
- There is no list of warnings on the website.
Customer Feedback
I don't feel the product helped with the Hot Flashes. I have not seen any improvement. – Helen M. Mount
It is in like a waxy base that stays sticky after you put it on. I have used another product that worked a lot better but cost more. I will go back to that and not reorder this. The other product is in a moisturizer cream base that is much nicer to use and absorbs way better. I would not recommend this product. – Grizzmom
Estro-Care Dosage Instructions
- Estro-care is easy to use; Squeeze the cream onto your palms and rub on the chest, abdomen, inner arms or thighs. One advised to this either once or twice a day, as per your convenience.
- You should rotate each area of application i.e. if you apply it on the abdomen today, do it on the thighs tomorrow.

- Estro-care may not be suitable for long term use.
- It may increase the risk of estrogen-related diseases.
- Not suitable for persons under the age of 18.
- It should not be used by pregnant of nursing women.

3 Ways to increase website sales
posted in Blog, Increase website sales by Anup Batra
- Increase website traffic : This can be done in so many different ways : SEO, Social Media Marketing, Viral Marketing, Offline campaigns. You need a traffic building strategy in line with your business needs. Do you need quick traffic? Then Google Ad-words and Map Listings may be a good way. Are you looking to outperform your competition? Then SEO & Social Media Marketing is the way to go.
- Improve website content : Does your content talk about the needs of your customers or about yourself? Always start with their needs and then how you/your service meets their requirements. Put a collection of articles/videos on your website to make it resource rich and interesting
- Offers : Have a soft and hard offer on your website. A soft offer is something which encourages the visitor to get a feel for your product/service without having to invest. This could be a free e-book, whitepaper, report or a free trial/demo. A hard offer is an offer to make an enquiry for or buy your product or service online. Not everyone is ready to buy and a number of people are in different stages from inquisitiveness to decisionmaking. By putting them in your sales funnel at different stages, you encourage them to know more about your company and eventually buy from you!

"Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said that Israel is behind the removal of former Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi by the Egyptian military."
Funny, but I actually believe this. Israeli and Egyptian generals have been counterparts for more than 30 years. They both know the dangers of Jihad and don't want it spoiling a good thing. Same with Jordan.
Israel didn't have that luxury with Syria or Lebanon and look what is going on there, although I do think that behind the scenes Israel is working to ensure the war between Assad and the Bruthas moves away from the border.

Very happy with my gloves! So lovingly made :) Thank you!

Instant download!!!! Loved using super bulky Fettuccini by Lion Brand to make this bowl. Love the look and texture!!!
It all started when I stole my sister's knitting kit
She didn't want it anyway. I was about 7 years old and learned to knit by following the tutorials included in the kit. My mother had taught me to crochet before that.
Since then I've been knitting and crocheting for myself, friends and family. It's relaxing and I can do it while watching scary documentaries about the universe destroying itself. My hobby has also gone as far as becoming the subject of my master thesis. I graduated as a furniture designer in 2011 and my thesis was about using knitted fabric as upholstery.
The idea for selling something handmade began with plain boredom. I'm not the type of person who would be able to sit around doing nothing, and I began to feel that I was already making too many things for myself. All that extra knitting energy had to go somewhere.
I design the patterns for all my items myself and draw inspiration from old vintage patterns. It may not show as vintage style, it's more like applying good old techniques to what appeals to me right now. Besides selling finished knits, I also write knitting patterns for small accessories and home decor items. My pattern shop is on Ravelry, and it's called MaireKnits.
The name of my shop, Mairea, comes from my grandmother Maire, who used to knit new socks for me, my siblings and cousins every winter. I want to pass on the warmth.

At one time about 5 yrs ago, Sox were getting double digits every night and B's were getting 1.5's.. now B's are getting 8's and 9's,and beating the 1st place Sox, one of the best records in baseball?? It's not like they are 3-13..wow. I can't explain this. And B's lost in the 1st round last yr too.. it's not like they just won the cup last yr.
I still don't know how the bruins got this popular overnight.. but it's great to see.

Roach will run in for the first over, his threat is the biggest for the Irish. Porterfield to face by the looks of it. Two slips.
While Sid Talya hops off for lunch and other duties, I shall bring you the action from the chase. Ireland have shown once that they are capable of chasing large totals. Compared to what they did in Bangalore, this is barely a middling target. Game on?

Benn trots in with a slip.
Benn to Stirling, no run, full length on middle and leg, driven back to the bowler
Benn to Stirling, FOUR, shot from Stirling. Benn tosses it up generously outside off, Stirling leans out to the pitch and goes uppishly on purpose. He times it well enough to get over mid off and get the boundary. Just over.
Benn to Stirling, no run, shortens the length this time, Stirling hangs back and defends
Benn to Stirling, OUT, gone. Was the appeal for lbw? Might have been. Umpire de Silva has given it out, and Stirling is most definitely out caught. Back of a length on off and breaking away, he stays back and tries to turn it to the leg side. Huge inside edge, onto the pad and caught on the off side. Easy as they come.
PR Stirling c Sammy b Benn 5 (7m 6b 1x4 0x6) SR: 83.33

Roach to Porterfield, 1 run, back of a length and on the pads, tucked through midwicket for a single
Roach to Joyce, no run, nearly another lbw. This time the inside edge saves him. Lands back of a length and nips in from off stump, this is what Roach does best. Joyce doesn't adjust for the deviation and pokes outside the line. Inside edge thuds into the pads.

Roach to Joyce, no run, shorter this time, Joyce camps on the back foot and keeps it out with a solid defensive stroke

Very fast from Roach again, looks for the stumps and ends up very full on leg stump, Porterfield has just waved his wand casually and send it through midwicket. Super shot.
Roach to Porterfield, no run, oho, Pollard is down in a lot of pain. Driving length ball outside off, Porterfield plays the check drive with half the intent, straight to Pollard at point. He seems set to collect it, but the ball seemed to jump up, miss his hands and thud, slowly, but painfully, into the side of his knee. He's limping back up now.

Russell to Joyce, FOUR, timing. With a capital T, capital I, M and so on. Too good from Joyce.

Sammy to Porterfield, no run, Sarwan has put it down. To be fair to him, it was more a case of the ball putting him down. He's standing really close in and these are some full blooded drives coming his way. Over-pitched by Sammy at a friendly pace and Porterfield drills it on the up straight at him. It thuds into the hands and bounces out as Sarwan winces in pain more than disappointment.

Russell to Porterfield, no run, aha, length ball on the pads, Porterfield's intentions were right as he set up a solid base, opening up the leg side and looking to swipe it over square leg. Did not make contact though.
Russell to Porterfield, no run, fuller length, he plays off the back foot and punches solidly into the covers
Russell to Porterfield, no run, whoa, he's almost done a muscle going so hard at the pull. And almost did his helmet too. Short ball comes straight at him, but slower than he expected and it missed his fierce swish of the bat and clattered into the visor. Ouch. The helmet comes off, and the pink head needs a new piece of protection.
Nagrajan: "No one has commented about three consecutive maidens by Sammy. Quite a rarity in one-dayers now!!"
Russell to Porterfield, no run, short of a length now, on off stump and defended cautiously to the off side. He has a new helmet by the way.

Sammy to Porterfield, no run, short of a length on off stump again, he's close to copyrighting this length. Defended from the crease to mid off
Sammy to Porterfield, OUT, Sammy has nagged away like a hair stuck on the tongue that just will not come out, and Porterfield has spat out too hard, in the process losing his dentures. Or something like that. Sammy has strangled him out. Back of a length on middle and off, Porterfield thought it had to go and went for a heave over mid on. The length, as has been the case with Sammy so far today, was again not there for the drive. It pops up, hitting the bat closer to the handle than the sweet spot, and is easily taken at mid on

ODIs: it is believed to be held by West Indian medium pacer Phil Simmons, who bowled six maidens in a row against Pakistan at Sydney on 17-12-1992."
Russell to Joyce, no run, fuller length, Niall is stuck on the crease and ends up playing it awkwardly off the backfoot into the off side
Russell to Joyce, FOUR, put your hands together for the shot of the day. And we have seen some shots today. Russell bounces him at 139 kph, it was headed for the helmet again, but Joyce has no problem swivelling onto the backfoot in one smooth motion and slamming the pull shot nearly all the way. Imperious and in front of square. Russell's hands are on his head, over the Mohawk hairdo.

Russell to NJ O'Brien, FOUR, whack. Niall gets into the act with a furious carve as Russell offers a rare foot of width outside off. Niall doesn't exactly go back and across, he just stays beside the line and cuts hard and in front of square. Top placement.

Sammy to Joyce, 1 run, on the pads, worked quietly to square leg
Sammy to NJ O'Brien, FOUR, Niall is looking good too, with another punchy cut. Width on offer once again outside off, he gets half forward and cracks it away through cover point. Deep backward point seemed to have a chance, but could not get around in time.

Sammy to NJ O'Brien, 1 run, Niall steals a single now, defending the slow offcutter with soft hands to mid on and hustling across

Flighted on off, appreciable drift for Benn as it lands and breaks it. Niall was pressing forward, but is struck in line with middle. The drift, though, has worked against his favour as the replay says it is going down the leg side.
Benn to NJ O'Brien, OUT, Benn has struck a crucial blow, Niall departs. Again, its that uncanny loop and bounce he gets that made the difference. That, and Niall's decision to play inside the line and try the cheeky run down to third man. Short of a length and a hint of inward turn, not as much as the previous ball, Niall stayed back and looked to dab it fine, it missed the outer edge and hit off stump.

Roach to Joyce, 1 run, aha, the short ball, pacy and well directed, Joyce was taken aback and late on the pull. Luckily, the mistimed hit doesn't carry to the men on the deep in the leg side

Roach to Wilson, FOUR, yorker attempted alright, but Roach slips it a fraction too straight and Wilson helps it along to fine leg for four

Benn to Wilson, 1 run, another single for Wilson, steered backward of point for a single
Benn to Joyce, 2 runs, Joyce opens the face and steers through the third man for another single

Miller to Wilson, 1 run, Wilson opens the face and steers a single through point
Miller to Joyce, no run, Dropped! This could be the turning point of the game. Time was suspended for a moment or two in Mohali. Miller slowed it up in the air, got it to dip slowly as Joyce jumped out with glee at a full toss. He ended up getting too close to the ball and hitting it straight back, quite softly at the bowler. It came so slowly that Miller jumped up in slow motion, and ended up hitting his peak long before the ball came, comfortably at chest height. It was so blindingly obviously an easy catch .. that he managed to put it down.

Russell to Joyce, FOUR, seemed risky when he played it, but knowing how well Joyce has calibrated his shots so far, it was probably intended. Driving length and angling across, Joyce stayed on leg stump to give himself room and drove in workman-like fashion. Played airily and not too far from the man at short extra cover. But he gets it past him and it is four more

Russell to Joyce, 1 run, whoa Benn. He's surprised himself with a superb save at third man. Joyce jumps to the leg side, runs back to middle and leg and gets a full toss outside off that he outside edges to third man. It seemed set for four unless a seemingly carthweeling Benn came in the way.

Russell to Joyce, 1 run, slower ball on off stump, he waits for the offcutter to break away and dabs gently to the off side for one
Russell to Wilson, no run, whoa, haven't seen too much off this before. Russell seemed to be pulling out of the delivery stride when he was like two steps away from the crease. And then inexplicably he got back into his stride and actually bowled the ball! Wilson plays it into the covers, amazingly, he wasn't distracted by the charade.
Russell to Wilson, no run, full on the stumps, Wilson drives straight to mid on. He's lost his timing, and hopefully will regain it during the drinks break, which is now.

Miller to Joyce, 1 run, Joyce keeps ticking along, hangs back and bunts a single down to long on as it turns in
Miller to Wilson, no run, huge appeal for lbw, turned down though. Looked like Miller turned it too much and it would have missed off as a result. Wilson went for a sweep and missed.
Miller to Wilson, SIX, Wilson has hit Miller out of Mohali. A slog sweep that would have made Steve Waugh proud. He plonks his front foot across the line, gets a nice juicy length from Miller and hauls it with the angle before it can turn away. Huge blow.

Russell to Joyce, 1 run, urgency in the air, Joyce jumps out of the crease and gets a short ball from Russell that leaves him fending an uppish pull to the leg side. He managed to get it away safely for a single through square leg
Russell to Wilson, 2 runs, Wilson has had enough of the scratching and is going after everything. He backs away, prances out and cuts uppishly over the covers. Enough time for a catch to be taken in the outfield, but there was no one to take it.
Russell to Wilson, 3 runs, yorker on the pads, just missed its spot and Wilson calmly flicks to deep midwicket. Was that Pollard in the deep? Top effort running across from deep square leg to save the boundary
Russell to Joyce, no run, Joyce is cramped for room and length by Russell and works it off the hips to the leg side
Russell to Joyce, no run, yorker at 141 kph, but Joyce is seeing it so well, he actually plays a proper flick from the middle and off line. Can't get the midwicket gap though

Miller to Wilson, 2 runs, Wilson has taken off after the drinks alright. Miller spears another one on the pads and he calmly paddles him along to fine leg. 111 off 83.
Miller to Wilson, 2 runs, Wilson runs down the track, gets to the pitch and whips expertly from off stump, and purposely without timing to midwicket. Soft hands and hard running. The perfect middle-overs recipe. These Associates know how to play alright!
Miller to Wilson, FOUR, Ladies and gentlemen. Say it in hushed tones. An upset is on the cards. Tossed up outside off, Wilson jumps around, shifts his stance and reverse paddles him in a manner so comfortable that aliens, if they are watching, will think it is one of the most common shots in the game.
Miller to Wilson, FOUR, and again! Just for fun, he plays it in a more violent manner this time. Miller spears it shorter and on middle and off, Wilson smacks the reverse sweep squarer this time
Miller to Wilson, no run, 4,4,0. He had 8 off the previous two balls, so just like that he decided to block this one.
Miller to Wilson, 2 runs, and a couple more, he flicks away as if he's dealing with Mohali mosquitoes and gets two to deep midwicket

Russell to Joyce, no run, Russell lands it full on leg stump, Joyce clips straight to midwicket
Russell to Joyce, no run, needless improvisation in hindsight, Joyce backs away too far and can't get bat on a ball well outside off
Russell to Joyce, OUT, Rusell has bowled the ball of the day. He then jumps up four feet in the air, throws his right arm up with finger pointed upwards. He's thrilled and he should be, since he has bowled a dream yorker. Delivers from slightly wide of the crease, and it snakes through the air around middle and leg, past Joyce's attempt to flick off the toes, and makes a mess of the timber behind him as he plays all around it. Collective sighs of relief being heaved in the Caribbean. However, there is a KOB to content with. And a batting PP.

Russell to KJ O'Brien, no run, this one comes off slower, KOB is early on the push into the covers and plays uppishly to the left of the bowler
Russell to KJ O'Brien, no run, aha, he's hit KOB on the ribs. KOB is in some pain as he misses a pull and takes it on the side. Russell's ended a fine debut spell in some style here.

Pollard comes on now.
Pollard to Wilson, 1 run, slower ball on off stump on 119 kph, Wilson hangs back and dabs through backward point for a single. A shy at the stumps though the keeper was imploring him not to have a go.
Pollard v KOB. Battle of the bashers. For now it is Pollard 1 KOB 0.
Pollard to KJ O'Brien, 1 run, and he nearly makes it 2-0 with a deceptive legcutter that KOB was years too early on and scooped up. Somehow it lands safely on the leg side of the pitch

Pollard to KJ O'Brien, 1 leg bye, KOB gets inside the line and gets a leg bye away as he misses the flick
Pollard to Wilson, 1 run, Wilson has 50, and he's really shifted gears since drinks. He stays put on middle and leg and steers quietly through point for one

Sammy comes on now.
Sammy to KJ O'Brien, 2 runs, and nearly has a wicket first ball. Short ball angling into the body, KOB packs his biceps into a power pull that nearly picks out Russell at deep midwicket. Russell misfields, allows a second, which was anyway on. And still KOB barely makes his ground. He really runs like a snail.
Sammy to KJ O'Brien, 1 run, he stays on the back foot and forces through wide mid on for another run.
Sammy to Wilson, 1 run, good work from Russell this time, 96.4 kph and angling into the pads, Wilson clips backward of square and thinks of two. Russell is quickly onto it.
Whoa, a similarly astounding catch in Chittagong. Imrul Kayes sends back Morgan.
Sammy to KJ O'Brien, OUT, Pollard 2 - KOB 0. And it may well be the ball that makes it West Indies 2 - Ireland 0. Shades of Ajay Jadeja catching Allan Border in the 1992 World Cup, according to Sriram Veera. Length ball coming in with the angle, KOB tries to get under it and dump it over long on, but ends up scooping it higher rather than far. Pollard runs in from the deep, with a dodgy knee mind you. He dives forrward. He is one with the turf as he plucks it with his hands in front of him. He stands up, and he roars.
KJ O'Brien c Pollard b Sammy 5 (10m 9b 0x4 0x6) SR: 55.55
Sammy to Wilson, no run, Wilson stays back on the crease and calmly defends down the track. This is all down to him now.
Sammy to Wilson, FOUR, that's pretty much as bad as a slower ball can go. Ends up as a lollypopp full toss on off stump. Wilson sees it, picks his spot, counts a few sheep, pinches himself, and then dumps it through midwicket.

Pollard to Cusack, no run, slow yorker outside off, 116 kph and Cusack tries to jam it to third man.
Pollard to Cusack, 1 run, full again, on the pads and Cusack clips it airily through midwicket for a single
Pollard to Wilson, no run, Pollard is bowling as slowly as he bats fast. 107 kph offcutter on off and plays without timing into the covers
Pollard to Wilson, FOUR, go Wilson go. Slower ball on off stump, he spots it late and just decides to carry on with the cover drive. The lack of indecision helped, he timed it well enough to go over the infield and it ran away to the extra cover fence
Pollard to Wilson, no run, another legcutter, shorter this time and Wilson will be disappointed he could not place the steer finer than short third man.
Pollard to Wilson, 1 run, taps a single, hangs on the crease and plays it into the covers softly for one more

Sammy to Wilson, 1 run, back of a length on off stump, forced into the off side for a single
Sammy to Cusack, 1 run, Cusack takes a nervy single, Sammy curves it in the air and he manages to dig it out to the leg side for one
Sammy to Wilson, no run, again Sammy gets that big inward movement and traps him in front of middle and leg. Surely going down the leg side, even Asoka de Silva says not out.
Sammy to Wilson, OUT, Sammy might have done it for WI. LBW appeal given and referred. This seemed adjacent. Or did it? Sammy lands this outside off and moves it in off the seam. Wilson has pushed outside the line and gets the pad outside the line. Wilson should be safe. Or is he? Asoka, as always has a surprise up his sleeve. He says the original decision stays. Wilson is flabbergasted after seeing the replay on the giant screen, and implored Asoka to check again. He was offering some kind of a shot at it, the late dab that he's played all day. Asoka is unmoved. Sammy puts an arm on Wilson's shoulder, but can't calm the agitated Wilson. Eventually Asoka checks again upstairs. And in the end, after a review of the review of the original call, he's given it out. UDRS continues to confound. Asoka apparently thought Wilson wasn't playing a shot. If Wilson wasn't playing a shot there, then I am Bill Gates.
GC Wilson lbw b Sammy 61 (90m 62b 6x4 1x6) SR: 98.38
Sammy to Mooney, no run, Mooney is the new man in, plays a full ball to the off side.
Asoka apparently thought Wilson wasn't playing a shot. If Wilson wasn't playing a shot there, then I am Bill Gates.
Sammy to Mooney, no run, Mooney lets the last ball go through to the keeper. End of an awesome spell from Sammy. Two wickets to him. And one to Asoka. Or possibly the third umpire who relayed the information.

Benn comes on now.
Benn to Cusack, no run, full length ball on off stump, he can't get it away
Benn to Cusack, OUT, Cusack is gone and the chances of an upset have receded considerably. Full yorker on middle stump, he plays all over it as he jumps out and looks to flick. The ball bursts through the defences to Thomas who fumbles and tumbles, but has enough time to regain the ball and break the stumps. Cusack never made it back in, he was in a shambles of his own down the track.
AR Cusack st †Thomas b Benn 2 (15m 5b 0x4 0x6) SR: 40.00
Benn to Botha, no run, flattish delivery on off stump from over the wicket, he gets behind the line and defends down the track
Benn to Botha, no run, turning into the pads, flicked through square leg for a single
Benn to Botha, no run
Benn to Botha, 1 wide, fires it in quick and fast, down the leg side for a wide
Benn to Botha, no run, Benn is a yorker expert of sorts. Toe-tickler on middle and off, dug out down the track for no runs
End of over 43 (1 run) Ireland 200/7 (76 runs required from 42 balls, RR: 4.65, RRR: 10.85)
- AC Botha 0 (4b)

- SJ Benn 7-0-33-3
- DJG Sammy 10-3-31-3
Roach takes over at the other end.
Roach to Mooney, 1 run, length ball angling across the left hander who laces the cover drive to deep cover for one. They need more than singles. And they need a miracle.
Roach to Botha, no run, a stunner of a yorker, on leg stump at 146.8 kph, a scream of dust as Botha hurriedly moves his feet out of the firing line and plays it to the leg side
Roach to Botha, no run, he keeps it full again, Botha digs it out to mid off. Another dot ball. This is tragic for Ireland.
Roach to Botha, OUT, Sammy, take a bow. Botha digs out a full ball outside off straight to Sammy at mid off. He takes off in a feeble effort for a single. Sammy picked the ball, ran in a step, lined up a throw, ran in some more, lined up again, and threw the stumps down at the bowler's end.
AC Botha run out 0 (3m 7b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
Roach to Mooney, 1 leg bye, misses the line a touch, 138 kph and a low fulltoss going down the leg side, clipped backward of square leg for one
Roach to Dockrell, 1 run, full toss on middle and off, and it is clocked at 151.8 kph since it doesn't have to deal with the decelerating effects of friction. Played away to the off side
End of over 44 (3 runs) Ireland 203/8 (73 runs required from 36 balls, RR: 4.61, RRR: 12.16)
- GH Dockrell 1 (1b)
- JF Mooney 1 (4b)

Batting Powerplay taken. Would game come on in an over, in any case. Benn continues with his slow left arm yorkers.
Benn to Dockrell, no run, full and fast outside off, no way a tail-ender is going to get that away
Benn to Dockrell, 1 run, Dockrell, who mysteriously did not bowl more than 3 overs today, is away with a single as he drives into the off side
Benn to Mooney, FOUR, top shot from Mooney who uses all off Benn's pace to reverse lap a boundary. Benn landed it on a length outside off and he sent it scurrying at the same speed to third man.
Benn to Mooney, 1 run, another low full delivery on off, Mooney digs it out to mid on for a single
Benn to Dockrell, no run, Dockrell manages to get bat on ball and steer to the off side, but no single to be had.
Benn to Dockrell, 1 run, 109 kph, full toss on middle and off. Here's the fastest spinner in the world after Shahid Afridi. Dockrell forces into the covers for one
End of over 45 (7 runs) Ireland 210/8 (66 runs required from 30 balls, RR: 4.66, RRR: 13.20)
- GH Dockrell 3 (5b)
- JF Mooney 6 (6b 1x4)
- SJ Benn 8-0-40-3
- KAJ Roach 6-0-26-0
Roach to Dockrell, no run, sharp bouncer, ambitious attempt at an upper dab from Dockrell and it is through him in no time
Roach to Dockrell, no run, another short ball, closer to off stumps and Dockrell again misses the steered guide to third man
Roach to Dockrell, FOUR, Roach attempts the fullish slower ball, and Dockrell is ready after spotting the variation. He lofts it cleanly, on the up over the covers
Roach to Dockrell, 1 run, aha, short delivery again, Dockrell hops away to keep his body intact and then manages to angle it with the pace of the bowler to third man for one
Roach to Mooney, OUT, Roach keeps delivering these thunderbolt yorkers, and the tail-enders don't stand a chance at all. Mooney tried to make room by moving to the leg side, Roach calmly followed him and banged his boots hard. The ball ricocheted onto the stumps and that's the end of Mooney.
JF Mooney b Roach 6 (18m 7b 1x4 0x6) SR: 85.71
Roach to Rankin, 1 run, yorkers at 152 kph. Batsmen watching on TV will be happy they aren't facing up. Rankin miraculously gets bat on it down to third man.
End of over 46 (6 runs) Ireland 216/9 (60 runs required from 24 balls, RR: 4.69, RRR: 15.00)
- WB Rankin 1 (1b)
- GH Dockrell 8 (9b 1x4)
- KAJ Roach 7-0-32-1
- SJ Benn 8-0-40-3
Benn to Rankin, 1 run, speared onto middle and leg at 92 kph, dabbed to the leg side for a single
Benn to Dockrell, no run, Benn classically flights this one up and Dockrell defends into the covers carefully
Benn to Dockrell, FOUR, ah, Dockrell gets four as Benn again tosses one up. What next? The bouncer? This time, Dockrell leans out to the flight and lofts it with finesse over the covers. Russell, running back, has rammed into the advertising boards after failing to stop it. He is now down, clutching the hamstring in pain. Substitute comes on.,
Benn to Dockrell, no run, fired in on off, Dockrell digs it out to the off side
Benn to Dockrell, FOUR, Dockrell steals another four, this must be really riling Benn up. Driving length outswide off, Dockrell steers it expertly this time and all the fielders square on the off side are inside the circle
Benn to Dockrell, no run, Dockrell jumps out with confidence and plays all around a loopy ball on middle and off.
End of over 47 (9 runs) Ireland 225/9 (51 runs required from 18 balls, RR: 4.78, RRR: 17.00)
- GH Dockrell 16 (14b 3x4)
- WB Rankin 2 (2b)
- SJ Benn 9-0-49-3
- KAJ Roach 7-0-32-1
Roach to Rankin, no run, 141 kph bouncer that blitzes past a weaving Rankin. He barely saw it. Meanwhile, England are collapsing in a heap in the batting Powerplay. They should ask for the batting Powerplay to be canceled while they bat.
Roach to Rankin, no run, back of a lengght and pacy again, Rankin plays it down the track unconvincingly
Roach to Rankin, no run, yorker at 144 kph on off stump, Rankin almost looks proud that he managed to keep it out
Roach to Rankin, 1 run, slower ball, served up at 114 kph on the leg stump, flicked to the leg side for a single
Roach to Dockrell, no run, and now a bouncer at 144 kph. Roach is exactly the kind of bowler the West Indies have looked for since Walsh and Ambrose left. Dockrell stays out of harms way, and Thomas' gloves take a pounding.
Roach to Dockrell, 1 run, he gets a single this time, dinking a single through backward point for one. He will now resume his battle of the slow left armers, with Benn.
End of over 48 (2 runs) Ireland 227/9 (49 runs required from 12 balls, RR: 4.72, RRR: 24.50)
- GH Dockrell 17 (16b 3x4)

Benn to Dockrell, 1 run, tossed up on off, driven solidly to Pollard at long off for a single
Benn to Rankin, 1 run, full toss on off stump as Rankin advances and he dabs into the covers for a single
Benn to Dockrell, 1 run, who's bowling the better yorkers - Benn or Roach? On middle stump at 108 kph, and somehow dug out to short fine leg for one
Benn to Rankin, no run, another one, looking to uproot the stumps, somehow Rankin keeps it out
Benn to Rankin, 1 run, short of a length outside off, he looks to dab it fine but can't get it away
Benn to Dockrell, OUT, all over, after all those yorkers, Benn has got a wicket with orthodox left-arm spin. Tossed up delicately on middle and off, allowing it to dip on Dockrell who reaches out and swipes. He doesn't make contact as the ball grips and breaks past him. Off stump is disturbed on the way. Ireland are bowled out.
GH Dockrell b Benn 19 (22m 19b 3x4 0x6) SR: 100.00
Right then, that about ends our live coverage of this game. Here's hoping Ireland don't keep getting tagged with the other Associates, who are clearly a cut below them in class and depth. Meanwhile, the action continues unabated from Chittagong, where England have closed in for an under-par score. Could be an interesting chase from Bangladesh. Do tune in for it. On behalf of Sid Talya, Sid Ravi and the rest of the gang, this is Nitin Sundar signing off. Cheers!
Man of the Match easily goes to KP, West Indies version. "This innings is for the people who have supported me. Good game for us, important to keep the momentum going. What's been said about me [20 over specialist], thats just history for me, I go out there and do my best."
Sammy: "We bowled where we wanted to and that got us the victory. Partnerships do form, thats the nature of the game, and we did well to stick to the basics. It was a tough thing for us when Gayle got injured, and it was great the way Russell stood up, he has a good future."
Porterfield: "We will be speaking to the match referee before making any comments on that controversial decision. We batted, bowled and field pretty well, especially considering we missed Trent as well today. Pollard strike the ball pretty clean, it was a good innings and it got them some good momentum. We got nothing to lose, need to continue playing freely."
Devon Smith: "Very satisfied with my show today. Hope the 100 is the first of many to come. Someone had to play the sheet anchor role in Gayle's absence and I did that."
Jason: "Should be now be called Ashocker De Silva?"
Someone is as frustrated as the Irish. Two-faced Riddler: "Thank You for NEVER ever publishing my comments. So much for waking up at 5am to see your commentary"
James: "Wouldn't you just love to see Roach, Taylor and Edwards in harness together for West Indies? Really exciting pace bowling." Can't wait for that to happen.
A good win this for West Indies, they played their cards close to the chest, and exploded while batting through Pollard. Ireland missed a trick, by not trying Dockrell against Pollard - he is a nervy starter against spin. Pollard's blast-fest made all the difference in the end. Ireland were always up against it, but Joyce and Wilson played like heroes to get them close. And then, that umpiring call happened... West Indies are up to 6 points, and second in the Group B table. India 7, WI 6, England 5, SA 4 - SA have a game in their hand, mind you.
End of over 49 (4 runs) Ireland 231/10 (45 runs required from 6 balls, RR: 4.71, RRR: 45.00)
