Ireland have defeated Pakistan back in 2007, but that victory came in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2007, which was an ODI version, and have now managed to do so in the T20 format, as they have registered an impressive 5 wicket win.

Andrew Balbirnie was awarded the Man of the match award for his exceptional 77 off 55, as heregistered his highest ever T20I score against a Test playing nation, and had the following to say:

“I was hopeful and thought that it is my responsibility to pull the chase off. I think in pressure situations, experienced players need to step up. Harry told me that we need to bat normally and not take any pressure. I think Shaheen is a great bowler and on the flip side it is a shame for me to miss the full toss.
