Dublin: West Indies levelled the series in the third and the final match of the ODI series against Ireland in Clontarf on Sunday, May 26 with a handsome 197-run win. The visitors will be gutted with the washout in the second ODI and hence, came out all guns blazing to pile on yet another smashing score of 385/7 riding on Keacy Carty’s blitz, which was the second highest for the West Indies in the ODIs, while Ireland offered a tame surrender in the second innings to concede a historic opportunity to win the series.
Carty, who was coming off a century in the second ODI, continued his good form and smoked yet another century off 112 balls, before going into an overdrive scoring 69 runs off his last 30 balls as the Irish bowling attack looked toothless in front of the carnage. Justin Greaves played his part with a 23-ball half-century, but it was Carty, who ensured that a set batter was out there for the majority of the innings.
