He finished with three for 66 when last man Josh Little picked out long on.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/23\/18\/75764573-12553073-image-a-21_1695491681621.jpg\" height=\"451\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>George Scrimshaw endured a nightmare start to his England debut as the hosts beat Ireland\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/23\/18\/75764459-12553073-image-a-20_1695491578348.jpg\" height=\"503\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Zak Crawley said he was &#8216;impressed&#8217; with the way Scrimshaw bounced back during the win<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I was so impressed with how George Scrimshaw bounced back, he showed a lot of character,\u2019 said Zak Crawley, England\u2019s 36th ODI captain, leading the team with the 15 men bound for the World Cup next week resting.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I wanted to give him another over after a tough start and give him a chance. You\u2019ve got to keep backing people to do their jobs.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>When Matthew Potts made it two wickets in two balls by snaking the first delivery of the fifth over through the defence of Ireland captain Stirling, momentum was with England.<\/p>\n<p>It remained so throughout a 10-over spell from Leicestershire leg-spinner Rehan Ahmed that reaped figures of 10-0-54-4, his best for England outside of Test cricket. The catching was excellent too, typified by a running, overhead effort from Will Jacks, who had earlier struck 94 in a total of 334 for eight.<\/p>\n<p>Unable to cope with Ahmed\u2019s googly, Ireland had slumped to 157 for seven but England\u2019s worst period of the match followed as Barry McCarthy, Craig Young and Little &#8211; Ireland\u2019s numbers nine, 10 and 11 &#8211; all hit career-best scores to delay the inevitable.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast to Scrimshaw, Sam Hain moved effortlessly onto the biggest stage, having waited until the age of 28 to show the qualities that place him second only to Indian batter Ruturaj Gaikwad in terms of one-day average (57.96) in the history of the game.<\/p>\n<p>The chance to become only England\u2019s third centurion on debut behind Dennis Amiss and Michael Lumb eluded him, however, when he skied one in the final over of the innings and had to settle for a 84-ball 89.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/23\/20\/75764453-12553073-Leg_spinner_Rehan_Ahmed_got_his_best_figures_for_the_England_tea-a-43_1695496360134.jpg\" height=\"440\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Leg-spinner Rehan Ahmed got his best figures for the England team outside of Test cricket\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/cricket\/article-12553073\/George-Scrimshaw-endured-nightmare-England-start-Zak-Crawleys-second-string-secured-48-run-win-Ireland-Trent-Bridge-ahead-World-Cup.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>George Scrimshaw endures nightmare England debut as Zak Crawley&#8217;s second-string side secure underwhelming 48-run win over Ireland at Trent Bridge<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":288745,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
