Afghanistan vs Ireland, ICC Intercontinental Cup, Day 2: Live online streaming

The online streaming of Day 2 of ICC Intercontinental Cup between Afghanistan and Irelan dwill be available on ICC's official YouTube channel.

Afghanistan scored 357 for 6 on Day One of ICC Intercontinental Cup against Ireland at Greater Noida Sports Complex. After winning the T20I series (3-0) and ODI spectacle (2-1), Afghanistan got off to a good start in red-ball cricket as well. Captain Asghar Stanikzai continued his stellar show and scored a blistering 110* inclusive of 7 fours and 5 sixes. Given the track will only get better for batsmen, he will continue to go all guns blazing and score big runs. However, the online streaming of this match will be available on ICC’s official YouTube channel.

Ireland are at the top spot in the Intercontinental Cup, with 80 points in four matches. Meanwhile, Afghanistan have 61 points and are placed at the second position in as many matches. However, given Afghanistan are ahead in the race, they may as well edge past Ireland and maintain their dominance over them. But Ireland are not the one to back down. They will leave no stone unturned to stage a comeback. For them to do so, they will have to play out of their skin on this belter of a track.

After winning the toss, opener Mohammad Shahzad provided a stunning start. He scored 85 off 130. Rahmat Shah, at No. 3, continued the rampage and added another 46 runs to the board. But it was Nasir Jamal who put up 154 runs with the skipper to place their team in a commanding position. Nonetheless, Ireland bowlers will look to bundle out the hosts within 400.
