On the other side, Ireland are again eyeing off a shock, having asked England several questions in their match at the same venue on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
Gaby Lewis\u2019 side had the hosts at 35\/3 in a chase of 119, only falling in the 18th over with the opposition tail crawling to the target.<\/p>\n
The performance has encouraged the group to back up and go again in a bid to break the team\u2019s drought and upset their more-fancied opposition.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou come to play England, who are one of the best sides in the world, and I think we’ve shown that we can compete,\u201d Ireland coach Lloyd Tennant said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think we set new standards for ourselves (in the defeat to England), and so if we can keep that momentum and play like that again, then we’ve got a chance of getting that first win on the board.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe came here trying to get off the mark to win the game in the World Cup. If we could win one early enough, we would have changed our goals to see how far we could get and how much pressure we could put on teams.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf we can maintain that standard (from the fielding performance against England) in our next three games, I think we’re moving forwards.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On the other side, Ireland are again eyeing off a shock, having asked England several questions in their…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":500068,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[102433,102431,153097,153107,153103,153106,153104,38251,153105,153102,102436,153111,102438,102434,4784,102437,85,153096,102435,46,102430,153100,153101,153109,105,153108,153110,153099,102432,153098],"class_list":["post-500067","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-cricket-breaking-news","tag-cricket-headlines-today","tag-cricket-live-score","tag-cricket-match-highlights-today","tag-cricket-match-live-streaming-score","tag-cricket-match-result-today","tag-cricket-match-today-live","tag-cricket-news","tag-cricket-results-today","tag-cricket-scorecard-live","tag-cricket-series-updates","tag-cricket-world-cup-live-score","tag-cricket-world-cup-news","tag-cricket-world-news","tag-icc","tag-icc-cricket-updates","tag-il","tag-international-cricket-live-score","tag-international-cricket-news","tag-israel","tag-latest-cricket-news","tag-latest-cricket-scores","tag-live-cricket-match-update","tag-odi-cricket-live-score","tag-sports","tag-t20-cricket-live-score","tag-test-cricket-live-score","tag-today-cricket-live-score","tag-today-cricket-news-update","tag-todays-cricket-match-score"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/500067","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=500067"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/500067\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/500068"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=500067"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=500067"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=500067"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
