William Porterfield 'Test status will be massive for cricket in Ireland'

Think back to September 3, 2013. A century, while captain of Ireland, against England. How good was that?
It was a pretty special moment. To score a century for your country always is, but at the end of the day we lost. It takes a bit away from scoring a few runs when it's not in a winning cause.

Was it made more special because it was against England?
It's always nice for any Irishman to do well when they come up against England in any sport, but they are the closest team to us and a Full Member nation too.

What is it like to captain your country?
A massive honour. To walk out leading Ireland is something I dreamed about. I had a taste of captaining Ireland's junior sides from a young age and just wanted it more and more.

Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

SalmaWest Indies won their first Test at home in two-and-a-half years when they beat Bangladesh in the first Test in Antigua by 201 runs. The visitors' chase of 334 was brought to a close at 132 for 9 on the fifth morning, just an over after Alzarri Joseph struck No. 11 Shoriful Islam on the back of his shoulder. The Bangladesh physio didn't clear Shoriful to continue his innings, thus bringing the curtains down on the game as Shoriful retired hurt.(28.11.2024, 13:35)(13:35)0

Annabella?Motie the batsman!? Its becoming a habit. He came in at117/8 and left at 166/9

Motie smashed 33(14)

He is world Number 2 bowler but probably wants a promotion to Motie the all rounder.
