    T20 WC: All The Stats From Ireland's 96-run Win Over Oman

    By IANS News February 14, 2026 • 17:02 PM View: 347
    T20 World Cup: Ireland scored an incredible 96-run win over Oman on Saturday to register their first win of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026, ensuring they are mathematically in contention for a place in the next round in the tightly contested Group B.

    Young bowler Joshua Little picked three crucial wickets, followed by Matthew Humphreys and Barry McCarthy's two wickets each, to bowl out Oman for 139 runs in 18 overs while chasing a massive target of 236 runs in their third match of the T20 World Cup 2026 at the Sinhalese Sports Club in Colombo on Saturday.

    It was an innings of two halves, as Oman ruled the early exchanges while Ireland, with captain Lorcan Tucker at the wheel, went on a run rampage in the second half. Ireland recovered from 64/4 in 7.3 overs to pile on 235/5 in 20 overs, the highest score at this T20 World Cup and the second-highest overall in the history of the T20 World Cup. Sri Lanka held the record when they made 260/6 against Kenya at Johannesburg in 2007.
