Till then, it's goodbye and good night!

23:18 (IST)9 MAR 2016

The Sportskeeda live coverage for those games begins at 3 PM! We do hope to have your company for that!

23:17 (IST)9 MAR 2016

As for the World T20 qualifiers, we have two games tomorrow from Nagpur. Afghanistan take on Scotland, and Zimbabwe take on Hong Kong in two matches from Group B.

23:15 (IST)9 MAR 2016

So, Oman now have 2 points next to their game now, and the momentum that they have got today might be used in their campaign.

23:13 (IST)9 MAR 2016

From 90/5 in the 14th over, Amir Ali dragged his team to glory! The players are now yelling and posing for the winning photographs.

23:12 (IST)9 MAR 2016

History has been made here in Dharamsala, and the Oman players are having a ball!

This is Ireland's first win of the ICC World T20!

23:10 (IST)9 MAR 2016

After a brief collapse in the middle order that saw Adnan Ilyas, Mehran Khan, and Aamir Kaleem being dismissed in quick succession Amir Ali combined with Jatinder Singh to take their team closer to the target.

23:08 (IST)9 MAR 2016

There were vital contributions from the top order as well, especially from Zeeshan Maqsood and Khawar Ali who got Oman off to a blistering start. Their 69-run opening stand laid the foundation for then middle order.

23:06 (IST)9 MAR 2016

Ali played one heck of a cameo, hitting 31 off 17 with 5 fours and 1 six.

23:05 (IST)9 MAR 2016

Amir Ali has been adjudged as the man of the match!

23:05 (IST)9 MAR 2016

Ireland have only themselves to blame for this! Too many wides and no-balls cost them this game, despite the 5 runs that were saved on the boundary. Indiscipline, misfields, and some genuinely poor bowling helped them find a way to lose this game.

23:01 (IST)9 MAR 2016

What an upset! What a match!

23:02 (IST)9 MAR 2016
