-
Chasing 164 at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo, Ireland began strongly and appeared well placed in the run chase. With close to 60 runs needed from the final six overs and eight wickets in hand, Paul Stirling’s side looked on course for victory. However, a dramatic collapse followed as Ireland lost eight wickets for just 38 runs, eventually going down by 20 runs. Sri Lanka’s spinners proved decisive, with Wanindu Hasaranga and Maheesha Theekshana picking up three wickets each to turn the match on its head.
