T20 WC: Tucker, Delany Fire Ireland To 235/5 Against Oman
Captain Lorcan Tucker: Captain Lorcan Tucker and Gareth Delany powered Ireland to 235/5 against Oman in a Group B match of the T20 World Cup 2026 here at the Sinhalese Sports Club on Saturday.
Captain Tucker (94), missing a century by just six runs, was ably supported by Delany, who hit a half-century, and George Dockrell, who provided a late push as Ireland posted the highest total at this T20 World Cup and the second highest across all editions.
Batting first, Ireland were off to a poor start as opener Tim Tector was clean bowled by Shakeel on the fifth ball of the innings cheaply for five. His opening partner, Ross Adair (14), who looked in great touch, hit three consecutive boundaries in the next over but went down in the third over after getting caught at mid-on.
