Skipper Aaron Finch returned to form with an aggressive half-century as defending champions Australia revived their T20 World Cup campaign with a 42-run win over Ireland, here on Monday.
Finch, who struggled with a hamstring issue, revived Australia’s innings with a 44-ball 63 as the hosts overcame a slow start to post a competitive 179 for five after being sent into bat. Chasing the imposing total, Ireland, who knocked out two-time champions West Indies and shocked England in the Super 12 stage, were dismissed for 137 in 18.1 overs.
