Ireland 193-5 (18 ovs) vs Oman | SCORECARD

Pacer Nadeem to bowl the 18th over. He starts his new over with a full toss which Tucker despatches over square leg for a six.

He gets the next ball off the outside half for a boundary square on the off-side and smashes the next down the ground for another four.

Nadeem attempts the slower ball but it sits up nicely for Tucker, who pulls it over square leg for a six, to make it 20 from the first four balls.

Tucker then misses the ramp shot off a slower bouncer which goes high but he makes superb connection last ball to hammer the full ball over long-on for a six, to make it 26 from the over.

Tucker has smashed his way to a brilliant 86 from 47 balls, with 78 coming from the last five overs.
