Paul Stirling on Ireland Performance: Ireland captain Paul Stirling has made a big statement after the defeat against Canada in the T20 World Cup. He said that even though his team had to face defeat in the first two matches, despite this his team is capable of making a comeback. According to the Ireland captain, they can defeat teams like Pakistan and USA in their next two matches.
Canada defeated Ireland by 12 runs in the match played at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. Batting first, Canada scored 137 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in the stipulated 20 overs. In reply, Ireland's team could score only 125 runs for the loss of 7 wickets and had to face defeat in a low-scoring match. With this victory, Canada has also opened its account in the points table.
We have to play our best cricket - Paul Stirling
After the defeat against Canada, Paul Stirling made a big statement. During the conversation, he said, whenever you wear your country's shirt, then you want to win. There is no reason why we cannot beat USA and Pakistan in our next match. If we have to do this, then we will have to show a very strong game. We know a little better about them and the conditions here are also different. I think we have to play as good cricket as possible. If we do not play our best cricket, then we will not be able to win the matches. So next week we have to give our best.
Let us tell you that the Ireland team has lost two consecutive matches and now it is very difficult for them to reach the Super-8. Even if the team performs historically and wins all its remaining matches, it is still very difficult for them to reach the next round. Ireland now has to play against USA and Pakistan and both the teams are in excellent form at the moment. In such a situation, it will not be easy for them to win these matches.
