Ahead of the T20 World Cup, Ireland caused a sensation in the cricket world by defeating Pakistan by five wickets in the first T20I of the three-match series at the Clontarf Cricket Club, here on Friday. This is Ireland's first win against Pakistan in T20Is -- coming in what is only the second-ever encounter between the two teams. Pakistan had won the first match between them.
Seasoned Andy Balbirnie top scored for Ireland with a 55-ball 77, studded with 10 fours and two sixes, as they successfully chased down the target of 183/5 with a ball to spare after restricting Pakistan to 182/6 in their 20 overs.
