Wicketkeeper Niall O’Brien was the hero for Ireland as they celebrated St Patrick’s Day with a famous three-wicket victory over Pakistan in the World Cup in Jamaica.
O’Brien held together Ireland’s innings with a gutsy 72 before being stumped following an ill-advised charge against Shoaib Malik - but the party started when skipper Trent Johnston heaved Azhar Mahmood high into the Sabina Park stands to finish the game with a six.
