SPOTLIGHT PERFORMANCE: Tucker's hundred

 As Ireland began its second innings of the Dhaka Test in 2023, they faced a 155-run deficit on the first innings. 

The visitors soon found themselves 51-5 in their second innings, staring down the barrel of an innings defeat.

Enter Lorcan Tucker, who was on his Test debut.

The wicketkeeper-batter combined with Harry Tector (56) for a stabilising partnership of 72 - then Tucker partnered with Andy McBrine for a 111-run seventh wicket stand.

Initially looking scratchy, Tucker found his rhythm on the low-bouncing track striking 14 fours and a six as he charged to a Test century from 149 balls - bringing up the milestone with a sublime cover drive to the boundary.

Tucker's 108 was the second-ever century in Tests for Ireland Men - and only the sixth wicketkeeper in Test history to hit a century on debut.
