Australia delivered the vast victory their Twenty20 World Cup campaign sorely needed, eclipsing Ireland by 42 runs at the Gabba and closing the gap on England’s net run rate in the race for the semi-finals.
“It doesn’t feel too bad at the moment but generally overnight they can stiffen up a bit,” Finch said. From 5-25, the Irish limped to 137 thanks to an outstanding rearguard by the 26-year-old wicketkeeper Lorcan Tucker . Australia’s win saw their net run rate climb from -1.555 to -0.304, much closer to England’s 0.239.That essentially means that England must beat New Zealand and Sri Lanka by significantly bigger margins than Australia can defeat Afghanistan in Adelaide on Friday night if they are to stay ahead in the group standings.
David, similarly, spent time off the field being attended to by the team physio. Stoinis also spent time off the field with hamstring tightness, meaning three substitutes were required.
