New Zealand vs Ireland
Highlights from New Zealand vs. Ireland, 37th match of the Super 12 Group 1 T20 WC 2022:
A 35-run victory over Ireland gave New Zealand a comfortable win and nearly guaranteed them a spot in the semifinals.
In the first eight overs, Ireland openers Andrew Balbirnie and Paul Stirling pounded Blackcaps bowlers mercilessly, scoring 68 runs for the first wicket.
Ireland lost the run chase after the introduction of the spinners.
Mitchell Santner's chopped-on dismissal of this threatening-looking Balbirnie was the catalyst for the entire situation.
Ish Sodhi then entered the game and took a few wickets, and Lockie Ferguson and Tim Southee also contributed to the Irish team's middle and lower order being completely destroyed.
