NED vs IRE: Watch - Harry Tector, Gareth Delany and George Dockrell combine to produce a magical effort at boundary ropes

Ireland players Harry Tector, Gareth Delany, and George Dockrell produced one of the best efforts on the boundary ropes in the game against the Netherlands. The match between the two teams took place on Sunday (May 19) at the Hague in the Tri-nation T20I series.

In what was a nail-biter between the teams, Ireland clinched the match by the margin of 1-run. They were magnificent with the bat, ball, and field, which eventually helped them to win the game by the barest of margins against the Netherlands National Cricket Team.

One of the main highlights of the game was the fielding effort by Harry Tector, Gareth Delany, and George Dockrell to save the crucial boundary for the team. Netherlands opener Michael Levitt played a cut shot on a back-of-length delivery from Mark Adair in the first over of the innings.

The ball went in the gap and it seemed that it would be an easy boundary. However, three Ireland fielders sprinted in full flow after the ball. Harry Tector was the one who put in the first effort as he dived and pushed the ball back in the air.

He showed great presence of mind as he pushed the ball just before touching the boundary ropes. Gareth Delany, who was just behind him caught the ball and volleyed back the airborne ball inside the rope. The ball was taken by George Dockrell, who threw it back, saving 1 run for the team.
