Report

A fine half century from Dom Joyce helped Ireland to total 149 for 8 from their allotted 40 overs in a match that started late because of overnight rain. Holland started brightly but then a fine spell from Conor Armstrong reduced them to 66 for seven. Raja then led a fightback with an aggressive 43 before he was the final man to be dismissed 19 runs short of Ireland's total with just nine balls remaining.
