Spin twins Maheesh Theekshana and Wanindu Hasaranga picked three wickets apiece as Sri Lanka defeated Ireland by 20 runs in a Group B clash of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Sunday.

Batting first, Sri Lanka were struggling at 87/4 before Kamindu Mendis’s blazing 44 off just 19 balls, and Kusal Mendis’s unbeaten 56 off 43 lifted them to an above-par 163/6. Chasing 164, Ireland looked well placed at 105/2, with Harry Tector set for the final assault alongside a struggling Lorcan Tucker.
