Curtis Campher hits 75 not out as Ireland enjoy winning start to Bangladesh tour
Curtis Campher smashed 75 not out from 50 balls and Paul Stirling weighed in with a half century as Ireland got their tour of Bangladesh off to a winning start on Wednesday, beating a local Select XI by 77 runs in a rain-reduced match in Sylhet.
Stirling, who has played for Sylhet in the Bangladesh T20, opened his tour account with 54 from 50 balls but the opener’s dismissal led to a slump from 106-1 to 135-5 before all-rounder Campher rode to the rescue.
