Regardless of defeats within the first two video games of the three-match T20 Worldwide sequence in opposition to New Zealand, wicket-keeper Lorcan Tucker believes that learnings taken from these video games will stand to this Irish staff as they go ahead into the T20 World Cup in October.

It’s vital for us to take a look at what high-quality opposition do in sure situations. Their readability and execution of expertise can supply us new concepts and methods of taking part in.

We are attempting to construct a technique that fits our fashion of play, and this stuff can take time to get proper.
