Rain stops play in Dublin with Ireland on 42-2 in their pursuit of the 202 set by England for victory.

Ireland's pursuit of 202 runs for victory against England has been halted by rain.

The hosts managed to play 13 overs in their reply innings, recording a score of 42-2 as they lost the wickets of Ed Joyce and Paul Stirling.

Ireland will need to complete 20 overs of play for the one-day international in Dublin to constitute a match.

Should the players return, William Porterfield and Niall O'Brien will return to the crease unbeaten on 15 and 9 respectively.

England earlier made 201-8.
