Chasing a paltry total of 195, Ireland's batting order collapsed like a pack of cards except for Paul Stirling who kept his side in the hunt by sticking to one end. With 69/5 at one stage, Ireland looked out of the contest but a 66-run partnership between Stirling and Simi Singh helped the visitors stay in the game. While Ireland fought valiantly, a flurry of wickets at the fag end of their innings led to their downfall as they agonizingly fell short by a solitary run. Stirling scored 69 and Singh hit 45. With the series on the line, Ireland will come out all guns blazing to draw the series level whereas the Netherlands will look to clinch the series with a game in hand.
