Ireland’s fast bowler Liam McCarthy registered an unwanted record in the third T20 International against the West Indies, conceding 81 runs in his four-over spell without taking a single wicket.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The match, played at Bready Cricket Club in Northern Ireland, saw McCarthy deliver a disappointing performance. He was hit for 11 fours and 5 sixes, with his final over proving the most expensive as it yielded 24 runs. In his opening over, debutant Keacy Carty and Shimron Hetmyer scored 18 runs off his bowling.<\/p>\n

This outing is now the second most expensive spell in T20 International cricket history. The record for the most runs conceded in a T20I remains with Gambia\u2019s Musa Jorbateh, who gave away 93 runs against Zimbabwe in 2024.<\/p>\n

Among Test-playing nations, the previous record was held by Sri Lanka\u2019s Kasun Rajitha, who conceded 75 runs against Australia in 2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
