Ireland setting a challenging target of 285 for the Proteas in the dead rubber:
After Ireland skipper Paul Stirling won the toss on Monday in Abu Dhabi, he chose to bat. The opening partnership itself was worth 101 in 23.2 overs, thereby setting the base for a healthy total. The captain led the way by top-scoring with 88 off 92 deliveries. Andy Balbirnie (45), Curtis Campher (34), Harry Tector (60), and Lorcan Tucker (26) also chipped in with crucial contributions.
Lizaad Williams emerged as the pick of the bowlers for South Africa with figures of 10-0-56-4, while Otteneil Baartman and Phehlukwayo chipped in with two each. Should Ireland beat the Proteas on Monday, it will be their first win over the opposition in ODIs.
