All-rounder’s 49 with the bat allowed Ireland post a competitive target in The Hague

Mark Adair starred with the bat then just about held his nerve with the ball as Ireland claimed a thrilling one-run win over the Netherlands at The Hague.

Fionn Hand was brilliant with three for 18, while Curtis Campher chipped in with two for 33 as Adair, who took the wicket of Netherlands captain Scott Edwards, was left to defend 20 from the last over.
