Ireland completed a T20 International series win against Zimbabwe as Kevin O’Brien and Paul Stirling laid the foundation with the bat before Mark Adair had a career-best outing with the ball as the hosts took an unassailable 3-1 lead with one game to play.

The impressive all-around display saw Ireland win by 64 runs at Bready before the sides return to the North-West venue for the fifth and final game of the series on Saturday.
