Forde reached 50 in just 16 deliveries — matching the mark set by South Africa’s De Villiers, one of the outstanding limited-overs batsmen of his generation, in 2015. In all, Forde struck eight sixes and two fours in a 19-ball 58 as West Indies piled up an imposing 352-8 in their 50 overs. Advertisement Keacy Carty had earlier hit 13 fours and a six during a less spectacular 102 off 109 deliveries. Liam McCarthy led Ireland’s attack with 3-66, while Barry McCarthy and Josh Little took two wickets each. But the match was abandoned without Ireland even starting their reply following a two-hour rain delay. Ireland lead the three-match series 1-0 after their 124-run win on Wednesday, with the two sides set to meet again in the finale on Sunday. Brief score: West Indies 352-8, 50 overs (K.
