New Zealand prevail by 51 runs

Rance picks up the final wicket to close the formalities. Ireland fall short by 50 despite O'Brien brilliance. Maiden hundred in vain but Ireland can take heart out of the fact that they gave New Zealand a genuine scare. Santner stars with the ball, especially for his outstanding final dash - 4-0-7-4 his figures there. That, after a combined batting effort gave them a winning 289 on the board.

The big fish

Stumped! Santner at it again and this time he has got the centurion Niall O'Brien! The batsman came down the track but misses the slower delivery and the keeper does the rest. New Zealand can't lose from here. New Zealand shouldn't lose from here! 234 for 8 now and before I could finish that, Santner completes the five-for with the wicket of McCarthy. Wraps up with figures of 10-0-50-5

The procession continues

Dockrell departs now. Two in two overs for Santner, but the credit for that goes to Lathan for that stunner. Times his jump to perfect, brilliance at midwicket. Dockrell flicks, and Latham plucks it out, diving to his right. That could be the game for New Zealand. Ireland, and O'Brien, in trouble now. The batsman brings up his maiden hundred in style though.. slams Sodhi for a six to raise the milestone! Ain't over yet, is it? Ireland need 63 off 48 now.

Santner keeps Ireland in check

No heroics from the debutant tonight. Santner has Simi Singh stumped on 9 off 14 to reduce Ireland to 212 for 6. Niall O'Brien is fighting for Ireland but losing partners consistently at the other end. They need another one of those 50-plus partnerships to have a realistic shot at chasing it down.

Kuggeleijn takes his third

Kuggeleijn strikes to get New Zealand the much-needed respite. Even though the danger man O'Brien stays, he's taken out Wilson from the other end to reduce the home side to 188 for 5. Credit to Taylor for the head-high catch at cover. 102 required off 14.5 now but with O'Brien in the middle, Ireland can't be counted out just yet.

Fifty for Niall O'Brien

'Brien says he's had enough. Brings up his fifty and is almost single-handedly keeping Ireland in the hunt. the run rate is slowly climbing, yet quite away from what is required.

Sodhi joins the party

Kevin O'Brien has been trapped in front off Sodhi. Ireland lose two in the space of five deliveries. New Zealand are assuming control here. Spinners to the rescue.

WICKET

Andy Balbirnie has been caught by Mitch Santner off his own bowling. Good diving catch from the New Zealand spinner. Balbirnie was looking to sweep but the top-edge hits him on his helmet and travels back in the direct of the bowler, who dives to get his team the breakthrough they needed.

Bright and sunny now, we're back!

17:15 (local time): Good news.. We're restarting in about 15 if there is no more rain. No reduction in overs either, for now at least.

16:40 (local time): Unlucky Ireland.. exactly 20 overs had been bowled before the rain arrived, which means there will be a result irrespective of whether there is more play today or not. And they are nine behind as of now. The delay could be little longer this time since its raining hard at the moment.

16:32 (local time): Ireland are nine runs behind on D/L, for now. They'd be hoping its another passing shower.

16:30 (local time): Rain break

The covers have been called for as the rain gets heavier. Stay tuned!

Ireland consolidate

Balbirnie and Niall O'Brien consolidating for Ireland. They've added 61 already for the third wicket stand but the home side are falling behind on the asking rate front. Meanwhile, ground staff is prepping on the sidelines. Its getting bit overcast now.

Early wickets for New Zealand

Early trouble for the hosts. Kuggeleijn strikes in his successive overs to take out both the Irish openers cheaply in the tall chase. William Porterfield goes fishing outside off and the outside edge flies to Latham who takes a well-judged catch, diving right at second slip. Paul Stirling was undone by an inswinger as he shaped up for a drive but the ball sneaked past to knock off the off stump. Bowler's delight, that! Ireland 26 for 2 and Andy Balberine and Niall O'Brien are the two men in the middle with a huge task on thier hands.

NZ set Ireland 290-run challenge

Neesham's 29-ball 30 takes New Zealand to 289 from their allotted overs, for the loss of 7 wickets. Join us back in half an hour of the home team's chase.

Broom falls

Was there any other way to get this man out? Broom guides one to backward point and is late in taking off for that single. The fielder sends the ball to the non-striker's end where the bowler takes the bails off. Broom is caught short, has to depart on 79.

Scratch that. It turned out to be a minor delay only. The players walk out to resume the NZ innings. Here we go again...

Rain despite for Ireland

So after Broom, rain's hit Ireland. They'll be slightly relived though. Needed a break to regroup. The covers are on, firmly in place it might be a long delay. Showers were predicted after 12pm local time. About an hour's delay but the rain has finally made an appearance. Stay tuned for the latest updates.

Fifty for Broom

With ten overs to go, Broom's picked up pace and he brings up his fifty with a bang. Chase is at the receiving - hammered for four, six and four off successive deliveries. 50 came with a six, off 46 deliveries. NZ inch closer to the 250-run mark.

Wicket no. 4

Tim Murtag ends Worker's knock right after his ffity. After a rather sedate start, Worker was picking up pace now, more so after losing Ross Taylor at the other end. He brought up his maiden ODI fifty with with back to back boundaries off Murtag but the bowler had the last laugh. Slower delivery, Worker looked to heave it over the deep square leg fence but finds debutant Simi Singh in the deep. Gone for exactly 50 off 89 deliveries. NZ 194 for 4 now and in comes Jimmy Neesham.

Kevin O'Brien strikes

Oh boy.. just as it seemed New Zealand have negated Ireland's advantage with Taylor's brisk fifty, the senior pro falls! Completely against the run of play. Sitter for a man at gully and Ireland have pegged NZ back once more. Taylor goes for 52. Neil Broom is the new man in.

Rosco rebuilds

Fifty up! Rosco cuts to third man for a single and raises the milestone. He's led rebuilding phase with his brisk half-century. Worker giving him company at the other end. He's on 27 off 61.

Two in two for McCarthy

Make that two wickets for the young man! Loose shot from the Kiwi skipper. Fishes a delivery outside off, gives a faint edge to the man behind the stumps. Easy catch for the keeper who makes no mistake. The umpire though takes a while before making his decision. It is in the favour of the home team. McCarthy's helped Ireland claw their way back into the game with the quick strikes after a rapid start by the visitors. Ross Taylor strides out now.

Rochi falls after brisk 37

Wicket, at last! Ronchi comes down the track to lift it over the bowler's head but instead mistimes and ends up giving an easy catch to the point fielder who has enough time to settle in while the ball was still in the air. Barry McCarthy gets the breakthrough. Big relief for Ireland this. George Worker is the new man in.

RONCHI OFF TO A FLYER:

Luke Rochi has set the ball rolling. He hammers 10 off the first over and continues in the same vein. He's raced to 25 off 18, while Tom Latham is still to get off the mark.

TOSS AND TEAMS:

Ireland have won the toss and have elected to bowl first. And the big news is that Simi Singh, who was born and raised in Amritsar, Punjab, India, has been included in the Ireland squad. Will be very interesting to see how he goes.

Here are the teams for today:

Ireland: William Porterfield(c), Paul Stirling, Niall O'Brien(w), Andrew Balbirnie, Gary Wilson, Kevin O'Brien, Simi Singh, George Dockrell, Barry McCarthy, Tim Murtagh, Peter Chase

New Zealand: Tom Latham(c), Luke Ronchi(w), George Worker, Ross Taylor, Neil Broom, Colin Munro, James Neesham, Mitchell Santner, Scott Kuggeleijn, Ish Sodhi, Seth Rance

INTRO:

Welcome to the second ODI of this tri-series. This is the second ODI of the tri-series, which got off to a damp start, literally, as the first game was washed out. The rain gods are in a more generous mood this time around, and the weather is much clearer.

New Zealand will approach this game as a warm-up to the Champions Trophy. They are without much of their main players, but will hope the fringe players get their eye in and get a good feel of the conditions.

For Ireland, they will not have a better opportunity to score one over their more esteemed rivals. An intriguing contest awaits.
