Ireland scripted history by registering their first-ever win over India, handing the visitors a 34-run defeat in the first T20I here on Friday.
This is Ireland's first victory over India in any format.
Skipper Lorcan Tucker led the way with a 36-ball 50 (5x4s, 2x6s) while Gareth Delany pitched in with a 32-ball 49 studded with three sixes and as many fours to post 182 for 9 after being invited to bat.
Ireland bowlers then struck at regular intervals as Indian batters put on a reckless display to be all out for 148.
Earlier, pacer Harshit Rana (3/24) was the most successful bowler for India while Arshdeep Singh (2/28) and Axar Patel (2/33) picked two wickets apiece.
<h2>Brief Scores:</h2>
Ireland: 182 for 9 in 20 overs (Lorcan Tucker 50; Gareth Delany; Harshit Rana 3/24)
India: 148 all out in 18.5 overs (Abhishek Sharma 49, Shivam Dube 25; Matt Hollard 3/28).
