T20 World Cup 2022: Rating Bowling of Super 12 teams in Week 1

11. Ireland- 5/10

The Irish side endured a dismal outing with the ball against the Asia Cup 2022 winners, Sri Lanka in their first fixture of the Super 12. Ireland were only able to pick up a single Lankan wicket and were beaten in 15 overs suffering a major loss even in terms of net run rate.

Spinner Gareth Delany was the only bowler who managed to pick up a wicket under his name in the match against the Sri Lankan side. As the side moved to their next fixture against England, it was expected that the English batters would take matters in their own hands and provide a good beating.

However, in an interesting turn of events, the Irish side took wickets in quick time that swiftly put England in the backfoot. Joshua Little completely outplayed the batters with his sensational pace and used the pitch conditions to his advantage. Eventually as it began showering in the venue, Duckworth Lewis came into play and Ireland were handed a victory.
