News summary

Ireland secured a historic four-wicket victory over Zimbabwe in the first Test match ever played in Northern Ireland, held at Stormont. Despite a dramatic top-order collapse to 33-5, a record 84-run partnership between Lorcan Tucker (56) and Andy McBrine (55 not out) steered Ireland to their target of 158. Zimbabwe's Richard Ngarava initially dominated with a sensational 4-12 spell, but Ireland's middle-order resilience turned the tide. McBrine, who also took a combined 7-75 across Zimbabwe's two innings, was named player of the match. This victory marks Ireland's first home Test win and follows their maiden Test win against Afghanistan earlier this year. Ireland's captain Andy Balbirnie praised the team's belief and highlighted the special contributions from hometown hero Mark Adair.
