Seems our plan is to bowl nearly everything on 4th or 5th line outside offstump
Ordinary so far
6666666 off Shamar's first ball
All boundaries off shortish wide or full and wide
After being hammered for 6 first ball, Shamar tightens up line and length, bowls dots, then gives up last ball for a boundary
40/0...8 overs.....Shamar....1/10/0

No Adair or Campher for Ireland and Dockrell's bowling has regressed so its good for them that Josh Little is available.

Forde to Cade Carmichael, out Caught by Shai Hope!! Fine delivery and the outside-edge is found. Forde hits a good length on off, Cade Carmichael is stuck on the crease and looks to defend, hint of movement away and a regulation outside-edge is found. Straightforward catch for Hope

Motie to Balbirnie, SIX, the slogsweep again and it's six again. Sees the tossed up delivery outside off, goes low and hits it over the deep mid-wicket fence
Alzarri not happy withe the fielding 
43.2
Alzarri Joseph to Balbirnie, out Caught by Motie at sweeper cover!! End of Balbirnie. Tector comes and pats him on the back as a token of appreciation. A slower-ball off-cutter wide outside off, Balbirnie reaches for it to loft but hits it straight to the fielder and down Motie's throat. End of a fine knock.

Ya dont say ��
50 for Tex as he continues to inch to that 50+ average
Ireland is really rotating the strike nicely with 1s and 2s and not necessarily only looking for boundaries - smart batsmanship
Shamar looks a bit rusty and lacking match fitness. Hopefully we can get him up to speed by the time we start to play England and then into the Australia series

Players look a bit rusty with some sloppiness in the field. I would have thought, if they are going on a tour they they would have gone a little earlier and played a couple of practice matches to work out those kinks.

What a ball and swing - that slip fielder was too lax on that!
In reply to Acid
you are welcome.
Oh skites run out
Lewis gawn
3/1
Run out
Totally unnecessary
No run there. None
Windies - wide of the wicket, short
Ireland - just outside offstump, most full, on stumps, threatening, no room to drive
Lewis running with the bat in the air 
Sammy should make a note of that and coach him on running
Another goes
You don't even have to pressure them
Very soft dismissal
Wow
SMH
And to think there are people on this forum want some of these batsmen in the test team.
Poorly coached and led.
I'm out
Bush cricket from Windies
I weep for the test team if this is what "Sammysm" bringing
Duck fi Jangoo
29/4
No words
8.6
McCarthy to Jangoo, out Lbw!! McCarthy on fire. He has Jangoo plumb. Full on middle and leg, Jangoo with a little shuffle, gets forward to drive, misses and is rapped on the pads. Definitely pitched in line and would have crashed into middle and leg. Easy decision for the umpire. West Indies in all sorts of strife.

Thomas Mayes to Shai Hope, out Bowled!! Maiden international wicket for Thomas Mayes. What a beauty too. Cleans Shai Hope up with a cracking inswinger. Goes wide of the crease and bowls the big inswinger, Shai Hope gets forward to drive and the ball sneaks through the big bat and pad gap, past the inside-edge and hits top of off-stump. West Indies crumbling here. Mayes is thrilled to bits as he roars.
Shai Hope b Thomas Mayes 2(5)

14.1
Joshua Little to Justin Greaves, out Caught by Stirling!! Good catch at a wide slip and Justin Greaves has to go. More woe for West Indies and they are heading towards a big defeat here. Full and curves in late on off, Greaves gets forward to drive and it's a thick outside-edge, goes low to Stirling's right and he makes no mistake with a good catch. Gets up and throws the ball away in delight. Time for drinks too.
Justin Greaves c Stirling b Joshua Little 35(17) [4s-7]
Ireland do so much more with so little.
Just like the test team, ridiculous fans rejecting Kirk, like we have worldclass batsmen.

Doubling the score will cover the target, maintaining the wickets is the challenge.
So far we are on track with these 2 at the crease as they near a 100 run partnership

Dockrell to Roston Chase, out Bowled!! Knocked over! That's the ball he was looking for. Another arm ball, pitches on a length around middle and Chase played for the turn. Ends up exposing a gap between bat and pad, and the ball sneaks through to hit the top of leg. A much needed breakthrough for Ireland just as the partnership was beginning to take shape

Dockrell to Motie, FOUR, flat delivery outside off, gets extra bounce. Motie dabs it towards the third-man boundary
Motie has been our best white ball batsman over the last year.
He and Forde will need to bat to the end
Spoke too soon - Motie didn't want to bat today

Dockrell to Motie, out Caught by Thomas Mayes!! Dockrell has three in the span of 11 balls! Tossed up delivery outside off and Motie was never going to be hanging around today. Throws his bat at it for a big heave and ends up skewing it off the toe-end. Holes out to long-off.

I thought there had to be at least 2 days between ODIs. Probably makes sense from an Irish perspective to keep down costs.
