The opening ODI has been played so far in the four-match series.

The third one-dayer between United Arab Emirates and Ireland on Thursday has been suspended due to COVID-19 concerns.

Earlier, the second ODI got postponed from Jan 10 to Jan 12, after four players of the host side tested positive for coronavirus.

Although there are no new positive cases, with UAE team remaining in quarantine as directed by authorities -- a decision was made by both the boards not to go ahead with the third game.

However, discussions are on regarding the rescheduling of the matches, with the opener on Friday being won by UAE by six wickets.
