    In reply, West Indies too came up with a fine performance with the bat, as opener Evin Lewis's 53 allowed the side to edge closer to the target.

    However, Joshua Little's 3/29 put the hosts short by just four runs.

    They went past the previous record of 91, set by The Netherlands, against Ireland itself, during the 2014 ICC World T20.

  • Do you know?

    Notts Outlaws hold the record for highest powerplay score

  • As for the record in T20s overall, it is held by English county side Notts Outlaws, who scored 106/0 in the powerplay during their NatWest T20 Blast tie against Durham Jets in 2017.

  • Bravo's return

  • The match was hyped owing to Bravo's return to international cricket for the side.

    He had last played for Windies in 2016, following which he was not selected for the format.

    Consequently, he announced his retirement from international cricket in October 2018.

    However, it was last month when he announced his comeback.

    Nonetheless, his return did not go well as he would have expected.

    As for Ireland, they have managed to qualify for the tournament, having finished third in the Qualifiers, and would be playing their sixth edition.

    Ireland's best performance in the tournament was reaching the Super Eights in 2009.
