    Anderson to Mooney
    Ireland have done it! Stunning chase! Mooney has his helmet off and screaming manically. It was full from Anderson and Mooney, cool as you like, just timed it wide of midwicket for four. The Irish players run out to the field, supporters are in tears! They have the highest run chase in World Cup history and have turned over their old enemy
    48.6
    1
    Broad to Mooney
    calm work from Mooney so calm. Keeps the strike by slicing down to deep point
    48.5
    1
    Broad to Johnston
    that'll do, Broad leg side and Johnston flipping around the corner for a single. Brings the last-ball specialist Mooney on strike, he could finish it now
    48.4
    2
    Broad to Johnston
    back of a length again and somehow Johnston has lumped this down the ground. He didn't want the two but Mooney forced him through for it. It was easy in the end and England are furious. 5 from 8...
    48.3

    Broad to Johnston
    much better ball from Broad, much better. Back of a length and zipping through Johnston's defences
    48.2
    4
    Broad to Johnston
    no, not there Broad not there! Full toss, gentle, and Johnston calmly got into line and drove sweetly to the extra cover rope. Incredible stuff
    48.1

    Broad to K O'Brien
    oh dear! O'Brien has given it away! He's flat on his face and can't pick himself up. Run out, of all things and this match takes another turn. Yorker flipped to midwicket, he ran the single easily but wanted a second which didn't exist, despite a despairing dive. Ends one of the great World Cup innings, Ireland were buried before he turned it
    47.6
    4
    Anderson to Mooney
    he does! Stunning work from Mooney. Delivering when he needs to. Clears his front leg, takes a punt and swings through the line. Absolutely nailed it to the midwicket fence. Ireland need a run a ball from the last 12. Should be a doddle!
    47.5
    1
    Anderson to K O'Brien
    O'Brien takes another single, he's not tried anything expansive in a while. Mooney needs to finish this over with a bang
    47.4
    1
    Anderson to Mooney
    same line from the bowler, Mooney tries to give himself room but can't. Ends up gloving it and it loops agonisingly wide of the bowler before plopping into space
    47.3
    0
    Anderson to Mooney
    tight line from Anderson. Back of a length into the hip area and Mooney can't get it away
    47.2
    1
    Anderson to K O'Brien
    strong shot but O'Brien loses the strike again. Just 10 out of 38 balls he's faced in this stand. Fullish and driven firmly to long-off. Another long meeting for the England think tank
    47.1
    1
    Anderson to Mooney
    starts leg side, Mooney flicks around the corner in the direction of Broad who is hobbling after it. Brings O'Brien back on strike, he's hardly had a hit of late
    46.6
    2
    Bresnan to K O'Brien
    excellent yorker from Bresnan, O'Brien manages to get the toe-end down just in time. Mooney called through for a single, having a race with Bresnan who ended up kicking the ball wide of the stumps for an overthrow!
    46.5
    1
    Bresnan to Mooney
    whipped into the leg side this time. Mooney is flying here, just sat back and flipped it to backwards square. "Don't panic!" implores Prior. Too late, I reckon
    46.4
    0
    Bresnan to Mooney
    short again, flash and miss! It was far too quick for him and climbed over the top edge
    46.3
    4
    Bresnan to Mooney
    brilliant batting! Such clear thinking from Mooney. Rather then let the pressure build he has dart. Gives himself room expecting the shortish length again, Bresnan was indeed shortish and he flashed it over point for four
    46.2
    0
    Bresnan to Mooney
    plenty of claps from the England captain for this. Bresnan holds his length back and Mooney punches to point
    46.1
    0
    Bresnan to Mooney
    ooh, holds this outside off stump. Mooney went fishing and couldn't connect
    45.6
    1
    Broad to Mooney
    Broad is holding he knee, really hobbling and there wasn't much weight on this delivery. Full again and driven to the covers
