Ireland captain Stirling out of Namibia series

Ireland captain Paul Stirling will miss the final two games of his side's one-day international series in Namibia after fracturing his finger.
The 36-year-old sustained the injury while fielding during his side's loss in the third ODI on Tuesday, a result that leaves his side trailing their hosts 2-1 in the five-match series.
Tim Tector, brother of middle-order batter Harry Tector, has been called up as a replacement.
The younger Tector sibling is uncapped in ODIs, although he has made eight appearances for the side in T20 cricket, averaging 17 in the shorter format.
Battling to save the series, the injury to Stirling is another blow to head coach Gary Wilson.
