Little known piece of sporting trivia, but for most of the 19th century, Cricket was the main team sport in Ireland: "As with almost every Country in which the game is played the English brought cricket to Ireland. the game
was introduced to the Garrison towns of Kilkenny and Ballinasloe in the early 1800's. The spread began
in the 1830's and many clubs, still in existence today, were founded in the next 30 years.
The first Irish National team took the field in 1855 long before any Test Match was ever played. The match was -v- The Gentlemen of England in Dublin. Charles Lawrence, an Englishman, was in Dublin playing, coaching and developing the game in Ireland in the 1850's. He went to Australia with H.H. Stevenson's team in 1861 and stayed to coach the ever growing numbers playing there. The touring professional teams all came to Ireland in the 1850's and 1860's. The first match -v- M.C.C. was in 1858. The spread of cricket continued until the early 1880's. Two events then became retarding factors. The first was the outbreak of land wars when Landlord and Tenant were alienated. The second was a ban placed on the playing of "foreign" games by the Gaelic Athletic Association who are the guardians of the native Irish games of Hurling and Gaelic Football."Even in Kilkenny! And if this global warming continues, who knows, it could be Top Dog again some time!

If Oman pull off the win, do we know who we would get in the playoff yet?

You would have hoped for a higher final total given the start, but still a very good score
