Ireland wins the toss and bowls first against England''s reserves in 2nd ODI

Ireland won the toss and opted to bowl first against England on Saturday in the second match of their one-day international series at Trent Bridge.

England is without all of its Cricket World Cup-bound players. Zak Crawley is captain of the second-string team.

Ireland failed to qualify for the World Cup in India starting next month, so is already looking ahead to the 2027 edition.

The first ODI in the three-match series was abandoned without a ball being bowled on Wednesday because of wet weather.
