In a largely one-sided encounter, a 326-run second-wicket stand between left-handers Ed Joyce (205) and skipper William Porterfield (186) proved to be the difference as it helped Ireland declare its first innings for 570 for six while replying to Namibia’s 251. Trailing by 319 runs, Namibia fell to defeat with more than two sessions remaining after being bowled out for 212 in its second innings.
