England got a wicket, not O'Brien though. And they're really attacking now. But Ireland still hanging in there. We're headed for another final-ball finish.
"Ireland require another 40 runs with 4 wickets and 36 balls remaining"

Ruh-oh O"Brien run out trying to 'stretch a single into a double' in order to retain strike.
"Ireland require another 11 runs with 3 wickets and 11 balls remaining"

This is the craziest game of cricket I've seen in a while. It's freakin Ireland.

I was going to say that after the run out of O'Brien, England might have survived, but then the new guy came in and hit a 4!
Ireland have won!  with 5 balls to spare!

They were 111-5 at some point. One of the most incredible comebacks I have ever seen! Wow! What an innings by O`Brien.

Ireland win by 3 wickets
Fastest century in World Cup history: O'Brien 100 in 50 balls.
Largest chase in World Cup history: 327 runs.
Done by freakin Ireland! against the old enemy!
The fans are dancing in the stands. Indian fans are happy as they were cheering for the underdog. Irish fans are just in tears!

What a match. What a knock by O'Brien and amazing support from Mooney and Cusack. O'Brien was just heartbroken at his runout, laying there.
Really good to see Irish improvement. Victories over Pakistan and now England. Amazing stuff.
Group B is wide open.

What a great match by the Irish.
England bowling sucks so far and Anderson is the worst of the lot but then again they don't really have many options at the moment.

Afridi, the captain, has stepped up and said "enough of this #$$%$" and taken 5 wickets.

It looked like they could have run for a run on some of those balls.
