da cassino online： ESPNcricinfo staff14-Oct-2021An unbeaten 88 from Gareth Delany followed by a combined bowling effort helped Ireland stun Bangladesh in the warm-up match in Abu Dhabi with a 33-run win. Quicks Craig Young, Josh Little and Mark Adair combined to take seven wickets as Bangladesh were skittled out for 144.Opting to bat first, Ireland were off to a good start before Nasum Ahmed struck to remove Paul Stirling, following which Delany joined captain Andy Balbirmie at the crease. Taskin Ahmed removed Balbirnie in the eighth over and George Dockrell was caught two overs later, but Delany kept going, bringing up his fifty off 33 balls. Ireland did not lose another wicket as Delany and Harry Tector put up a 99-run stand to take them to 177 for 3. Delany hit eight sixes and three fours in his 50-ball stay, while Tector brought up a run-a-ball 23.Bangladesh lost three batters – Mohammad Naim, Liton Das, and Mushfiqur Rahim – within the first ten balls of the chase for single-digit scores. Soumya Sarkar and Nurul Hasan tried to resurrect the innings with contributions of 37 and 38 respectively, but they found no support at the other end during their stay. Bangladesh slumped from 82 for 4 to 144 all out as Adair and Little cleaned up the tail, leaving Taskin unbeaten on 14.Ben Cooper struck three fours and as many sixes in his 28-ball 40•ICC/Getty Images
Aqib Ilyas’ 78 went in vain as Oman suffered a four-run defeat against Netherlands in the warm-up game in Dubai. Colin Ackermann’s unbeaten 21-ball 37, and 43 and 40 from Stephan Myburgh and Ben Cooper respectively set up Netherlands’ 165 for 4 before Timm van der Gugten defended ten in the final over.After winning the toss, Oman sent in Netherlands but struggled to make early inroads. Myburgh and Max O’Dowd added 43 for the first wicket and after Zeeshan Maqsood bowled O’Dowd for a run-a-ball 21, Myburgh put on 45 with Cooper for the second wicket. After Myburgh was run out, Ackermann’s three sixes and as many fours in his blitz at No. 4 took Netherlands to a formidable total.In response, Oman lost Jatinder Singh for 1 in the second over. His opening partner, Ilyas, however, got them going with a counter-attacking knock that saw him score 60 of his 78 runs in boundaries, with the help of six sixes and as many fours. He strung a 99-run stand for the third wicket with Mohammad Nadeem, who was one of the three run-out victims for Oman.A 35-run seventh-wicket partnership between Sandeep Goud (19 off 9) and Naseem Khushi (14* off 17) put Oman in sight of victory, with Goud clobbering two sixes off van der Gugten in the 17th over to bring the equation down to 20 required from 18 balls. But a four-run 18th over from Logan van Beek, followed by Goud’s dismissal early in the 19th, ended Oman’s fight.
