In the second inning, Afghanistan tried to give up a tough fight, but the side got all out with a score of 218 runs. Ireland successfully chased down the target of 111 runs to register their first-ever win in Test cricket.

Ireland took 8 Tests to register their first win

Australia stands in first place in the list of the teams taking the fewest matches to win their first test, as the side secured their first victory in their first test itself. Ireland waited for 8 test matches to taste their first-ever victory in five-day cricket, and finally, the moment came when the side secured a massive win over Afghanistan by 6 wickets.

Mark Adair picked up a total of 8 wickets

Mark Adair received the Player of the Match award for his impressive bowling performance in the one-off test against Afghanistan, which played a very instrumental role in Ireland’s first success in Test cricket.
