South Africa Beat Ireland By 21 Runs Despite Tucker's Heroics With The Bat
A blistering 38-ball 78 from Lorcan Tucker wasn't enough for Ireland as South Africa survived a scare to secure a 21-run win in the first T20I at Bristol to go 1-0 up in the two-match series.
Fifties from Reeza Hendricks and Aiden Markram took South Africa to 211-5 in their 20 overs. In the pursuit of the massive chase, Ireland slipped to 84-5 before Tucker and George Dockrell (43 off 28 balls) kept Ireland in the hunt until wickets tumbled at the end of the chase, ending at 190-0 in their 20 overs.
