OVERNIGHT, IRELAND’S CRICKETERS pulled off another incredible win as they opened their World Cup campaign with a four wicket victory over West Indies.
Nelson, in the north of New Zealand, was turned into a sea of green as the Saxton Oval was taken over by Irish fans.
The result means Ireland now need just two more wins from Pool B to progress to the quarter-finals.
