Ireland Cricket Team Records and Statistics: T20 World Cup Records Made by the Team

Even though the sport was initially played in Ireland in the 19th century, the first time an Ireland team competed in a cricket match was in 1855. In 1993, Ireland became the first to be granted Associate membership in the International Cricket Council. Since then, there have been enormous shifts in how cricket is played on the island of Ireland. Still, Ireland’s national team is a Full Member of the International Cricket Council and competes in all three game formats. Ireland has qualified for the ICC World Cup and all four World Twenty20 competitions. In addition to the ICC World Cup, Ireland has prepared for all the World Twenty20 competitions. They will keep their status due to their outstanding play in the World Cups, and they are in an excellent position to be promoted to the Test level. It’s only the second time Ireland has made it to the second stage of the T20 World Cup, following their performance in the Super 8s at the 2009 tournament in England.

Here is the list of T20 world cup records:

Due to Ireland’s continued success in the shortest format, the country’s team has been invited to participate in the World Twenty20 in 2009, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016, and 2021. With their victory over Oman on February 22, 2022, in a World Cup qualifying match, Ireland clinched their spot in the Twenty20 World Cup for 2022. Ireland might be one of the smaller teams at the World Cup. However, he has often shocked top teams by beating them in major competitions like the World Cup. The section would only be wise to underestimate him under these circumstances. The most significant victory that Ireland ever achieved came against Nigeria in the qualifying match for the 2019 ICC World Twenty20. Even though they could not prevail in the championship match, they secured a spot in the ICC mega competition.
