One run. Kagiso Rabada to Mark Adair. Short, outside off stump backing away pulling, mis-timed to long on for 1 run, fielded by Markram. Rain is playing a hide and seek game here. The pitch is covered, and the players walk off the field along with the officials. That's the end of Ireland's innings. The first innings was terminated after 40.2 overs bowled due to rain. Ireland scored 195 for the loss of four wickets. William Porterfield and Andy Balbirnie top-scored with 63 and 65, respectively. For South Africa, Kagiso Rabada picked up two wickets. So there is no possibility to resume the game. Hence the game has ended with No result. Do join us for the second ODI on 13th July at the same venue. Until then, cheers.
