    WICKET

    McCarthy c Kishan b P Yadav 2 (Ire 154-8)

    Former Ireland women's coach on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra 3

    It is windy out there and Ishan Kishan done well with that catch. Credit to Harry Tector he dug in and scored 53.

    I'm all about the big stories here, so here's a towel update.

    The rain has now stopped at Stormont but Sooryavanshi is still wearing it on his head to protect him from the sun, which has made another appearance.

    It's versatile and fashionable.

    Four seasons in a day in Belfast, which is often the case.

  4. wicket

    WICKET

    H Tector c Kishan b P Yadav 53 (Ire 153-7)

    Harry Tector skies a shorter ball high into the air and Ishan Kishan takes a sharp diving catch behind the stumps.

    He falls for 53 (47).

    Two balls to come.

  5. Not out - Ire 150-6

    Comfortably going down leg. Carry on.

  6. India review

    Chaos in the middle. India's players are appealing for an lbw against Harry Tector. Liam McCarthy is halfway down the track from the non-striker's end. Tector is standing his ground.

    Everyone's standing around the ball but no one throws down the vacant stumps.

    Eventually, India review.

    Harry Tector waited that one out beautifully and a lovely moment for his 50 on his 100th cap.

    He got off to a slow start and got a let-off when Prince Yadav missed the stumps when he was on 11. However, if you let Tector off the hook, he will make you pay.

  8. 50 runs

    50 for Harry Tector

    Ire 149-6

    Harry Tector brings up a half-century on his 100th T20I cap with a four off the final ball of the over. Picked the gap between point and third beautifully.

    He's on 51 off 44 balls.

  9. Ed Joyce
    Former Ireland women's coach on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra 3

    It's swing mode now for Ireland. George Dockrell wasn't fully in control of that shot and was easily caught out in the deep by Patel.

    Former Ireland cricketer speaking on TNT Sports

    Good pace and and good length on that ball from Arshdeep Singh. Dockrell got away with one the ball before but not this time.

    WICKET

    Dockrell c Patel b Arshdeep 19 (Ire 144-6)

    George Dockrell falls for 19 (14), picking out Axar Patel at deep point. The fielder was all alone out there - anywhere else would've been safe.

    A second wicket for Arshdeep Singh.

  12. Ire 142-5

    Two overs to go. Ireland will be eyeing 170. 160 as a minimum.

  13. 6 runs

    Ire 138-5

    Oh ho! Welcome back to the action! George Dockrell gallops down and whacks Axar Patel for six.

  14. That might be the briefest rain delay I've experienced in cricket. The wind has blown the bad weather through mercifully quickly.

    Axar Patel is bowling to George Dockrell.

    VVaibhav SooryavanshuiBBC Sport

    The rain briefly has stopped play as a heavy shower, which had been threatening to appear for a while, falls on Stormont.

    Outside the boundary, 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is watching on with a towel over his head to take cover from the rain.

    Welcome to Belfast, kid.

    *Apologies for the photo that was apparently taken on a potato.

  16. rain stops play

    Rain stops play - Ire 132-5

    Dockrell 9 (7), Tector 46 (42)

    Harry Tector runs a single to start the 18th over. It's going to be the last action for the time being.

    The covers are rushed on. Umbrellas are deployed around the ground.

  17. Get Involved

    It is so exciting seeing Ireland playing India. The sport does not get the support or recognition it deserves here but with the women also doing well, let's hope it will create more interest, especially at school level.

    A brilliant shot from George Dockrell. George stayed nice and low and hammered the ball down the ground. A nice four to finish that over.

  19. Ire 131-5

    Shivam Dube shouts "yes, yes?" at umpire Johnny Kennedy, pleading for an lbw against Harry Tector. Kennedy isn't interested. It was comfortably missing his leg stump.

    Tector and George Dockrell run hard to snatch a couple of twos. Dockrell finishes the over with a four down the ground.

    13 from it.

  20. Ire 122-5

    Harry Tector moves into the 40s, helping Shivam Dube around the corner for four over fine leg.
