12:57 GMT: Start of play for the day
Ireland won the toss and will bat
Hello and welcome to the live coverage of the match 42 in the 2007 Cricket World Cup where it is a battle of the Super Eights wooden-spoon with winless Ireland taking on the side just two points ahead of them in seventh place, Bangladesh in this the 18th Super Eights match from the Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados.
After the excitement of yesterday's must win game, here we have a game that both sides will want to win purely for the honour of not being bottom of the table. Neither side can qualify for the last four but that will matter little when they step onto the Bajan soil today.
Bangladesh, having already beaten South Africa, have the West Indies and England in their sights - after all, they could finish fifth but no higher. Ireland just want to go home with at least a win under their belts. They are already minor celebrities back on the Emerald Isle but very soon they will be back to their daily work.
It will be interesting to see what kind of crowd will show up today. If everything had gone to plan in the group stages, the game on the park today would have been India v Pakistan. Instead, the greens are Ireland and the other greens are not Pakistan either!
Who will win? It has been a great and memorable World Cup for both these sides but the experience of Bangladesh should be enough to see them through.
The atmosphere here at the newly redeveloped Kensington Oval has be electric. It's now a 32,000 capacity stadium and the biggest and oldest in the Caribbean. This is just the 22nd ODI to be held on this ground since the first in 1985. Granted, the West Indies are not in action here today but they haven't won here in the last eight ODIs since 1999. Bridgetown used to be a fortress for West Indies cricket.
The leading run scorer on this ground is Brian Lara with 515 in 11 matches (average 57.22) while the head wicket-taker is Curtly Ambrose with just 9 from 10 games (average 43.77).
Surprisingly, this is the first time that these two sides will have met in ODIs. They are not that well acquainted at all. The first time they met was in the ICC Trophy of 1997 in Kuala Lumpur, which was rained off. The Tigers went to Ireland in 1998 and 2004. Ireland won the first game but Bangladesh won the two in 2004. In the Commonwealth Games of 1998 in Malaysia, Northern Ireland bowled their opponents out for just 63 to win by 114 runs!
Billy Bowden is joined by Steve Bucknor in the middle for today's game with Simon Taufel as the third and Rudi Koertzen the fourth. Jeff Crowe is the match referee.
