Afghanistan vs Ireland, 25th Match

Ireland clinched historic 5-run victory over mighty England courtesy of DLS method in a rain-affected match. However, Ireland performed significantly well in the match with bat and ball. Their skipper Andrew Balbirnie batted brilliantly along with wicketkeeper batter Lorcan Tucker. Even, Irish bowlers did well in the second innings as prolific batters like Jos Buttler, Alex Hales and Ben Stokes could not even reach double digits. Meanwhile, Afghanistan lost their first game against England and settled with one point against New Zealand as the match was called off due to massive rain in Melbourne on October 26.
